Just the beginning - Finally post a pic

Thought I'd post just a few pic... Still got a lot of work to do, but I like my K2 BK - still trying to figure out what I want to do with the grill. I started to have the mesh painted black, but I wanted to see what they looked like unpainted.

I have a lot of dings and scratches, which my body guy said to fix all, and paint entire car will run 4K.. Willl need to check around, but I know it will not be done this year... Got the Borla cat back, and clutch kit in Aug, and I think I'm done for the year.

I know..I know... I'm not feeling black either..so until I come up with something else - it will do...

Reminds me when shopping for a MP3 - which one should I buy...everybody says Ipod - Why, because everybody got one...not that it's the best..but because everybody got one... Eventually, everybody starts looking the same... I got to be different..

The mesh is not permanent...it's just protecting my intercooler for now..

About time you got some pics up!!! I like the mesh actually...

Car looks great, paint is shiny too!

Painting the mesh black would look good too, but it matches the wheels so doesn't look that bad IMO.

Its one of those things that everyone does because it looks good painted black versus silver.

But more importantly mod the car the way you like.. who cares what other people think.. It's your car after all.


Nice progress so far.

Why would you like the grille mesh silver? That looks almost as fugly as those tube bar grilles, paint em black so they'll disappear!
