This happened to every single car that we painted the antenna on. Just a heads up!! Although there may be some type of paint that wouldn't affect it... something to look into.
Didn't even think about that... Good to know thanks.

Personally I prefer the headlights left silver or painted black, color matching headlights doesn't do it for me especially on really light colors. Satin grill, diffuser are super cheap to do and a vinyl roof looks really good on silvers & whites, the next cheap mod is springs and if you car isnt a high mileage car the stock shocks will hold up on a slight drop. I have a 2" drop in the front with a rep gilla lip which is low and if I turn I don't scrape but I do randomly scrape in the middle of roads but its the bottom of the lip so who cares.

Motordyne! http://www.motordyneengineering.com

I've heard good things about Hotchkiss sways as well, but I can personally vouch for Motordyne. Amazing quality and customer service. Send a PM to Tony (username: Hydrazine). He is the owner of Motordyne.

Also, I highly recommend the sway bars. After I put mine on, I was angry at myself for not having done it sooner.

Get the whole front, Nismo, Karuma or something, if you car didn't come with a lip its better to just get a whole front, or you will be like me. Buy a painted lip and in 6 months want the whole front you will save money in the long run.
