Lakeshore Build

I got my car back from the body shop. Im looking into further mods in the future.

This is what i've got done so far.



Car in the shop:



Fitment:




Full repaint:



Grabbed a better camera, Paint is still fresh..... it's been raining.







Trunk from Strafe, Gialla grill from strafe, n1 lip from EBAY ($70) it fits.

enjoy. For those that wonder what carbon fiber looked on LS (Lakeshore slate), It looks better in person. My camera skills just suck. I'll have my friends get on it after a good clean and wax.

BUmper, taillights, bumper insides, trunk, and the quarter panels needed new paint. No frame damage. it came out to 8k from the estimator.

btw, did you know from the factory a trunk and that fugly spoiler comes out the be 1200+ give or take. So with the strafe trunk I pocketed some money.

I dont know how'd you do that, but thanks for the cool chop harrisonk.... Now i have to get on the drop and spacers..


the door is blended in... There's just a crease in the door from someone backing into it. But litteraly every panel besides the doors and the roof were painted.

the white 'patchy' or lghter patch you see on the door is polish residue that the rain got all over the car from the windows and the small creases of the car.. Same goes with the trunk.. you can see some white streaks.
