any more plans to the exterior? i would do the grille black with IP emblem, black window trim, colormatched door handles and mirror bases, black roof spoiler, m3 trunk lid spoiler, smoked tail lights, and havent seen an IP sedan with a stillen front lip, that would be unique ;-) oh and do the battery covers and engine covers white to set off the engine bay
Edit: i just noticed Janik posted mod suggestions on another thread as well lol, this forum is a bad influence on people, every1 spends an arm and a leg on mods

Well you're mostly on par with what my plans already are.
Next few items on the list are Wheels, flat black inside the headlights+projectors, black grille (maybe IP emblem, not sure yet) M3 Lip spoiler.
Later on, I'll be doing the mirror bases, battery covers (shaved), engine cover (part of it anyway) and the CAI all matched IP, with the CAI hose couplers in black
I also want to do a nismo front and 05/06 tails w/ JDM reverse lights.
Probably not going to blackout the window trim, I like it the way it is. I might colormatch the handles, but don't count on it.
I'm holding out for HIKKATADORI'S nismo replica, and I might get the integrated lip if it's not too much extra.
