Thumbs up

Looks good Nate. I like the time-attack looking wheels. That shade of blue just seems to fit with that color car. If you went with the norm, red, it would have looked very off IMO.

Nice touch with the painted rear lights too.

lol, everyone has their own opinion shane. so i figure i'd throw mine out just like everyone else. no harm done. just constructive criticism. i take everyone elses with a grain of salt.

i mean.. referring back to the CF grill stuff and ebay.. would be pretty similar to a situation like this. why not purchase the real thing and choose ebay?? cause i cant afford it?

not the case... here obviously...

Paint the front emblem black to match the rear and slam it.

Thanks Chris! Personally I like the the chrome look of the front emblem. As for slamming, I'm already lowered an inch all around - now I gotta drop more??!!

Drop it until it scrapes. Then when everything flattens out on the bottom, drop it some more!

Okay imagine the front emblem blacked out to match the rear, smoked INNER headlight housings like kris79's headlights and slammed.

Yes more more more. If you don't get a crazy front lip then you'll be okay with more of a drop.

Yes - if only they'd fit a sedan

Then again, I love having my own stuff, so maybe not your's (even if they did fit a sedan).

Thank you Droppin'! As far as paint goes, that's a question I'd have to refer to vodkarocket to answer - I'm a little oblivious
