FINISHED (UPDATED) - springs, wheels, aero, painted grille

Hey everyone! Everything I plan on doing to the exterior of my sedan is finally complete. I finished installing the aero kit last Friday and I'm just now getting around taking some pics. It rained yesterday so the car is a little dirty. Better pics to follow this weekend. Here's what I did:

- Lowered with Eibach springs
- Clear corners
- HP Design Hyper-dark 19x8.5 Evo wheels
- Aero kit
- Painted front grille

I did the grille a while ago, and it could use a new paint job due to road construction crap taking a few chips off of it. The aero kit install went well. The sides were very easy, and the front facia wasn't bad at all, but the lower rear facia was a pain. A lot of drilling and had to remove the rear facia to do it right. Very good kit IMHO. All bolt on, no tape at all. Very well made, and perfect fit and paint match.

Just one pic for now:


Later,

John

1. how much was the aero kit? (for parts and for install)
2. how did you paint the front grille?

the car looks very nice. you need to black out the side markers.

One of the best looking cars on this site. Those wheels are perfect for the G, especially with the drop and aero kit.

Nice job John;
Looks great. I like the painted grill with the dark body colors.
Would look good with TB or Black
