Single FTW! Yea, I might just see how it looks with the factory "diffuser" and if it stands out as looking odd, I might have the right hole filled in.

Let me know if you do this, I have also started to like the Fujitsubo, so who knows?

That's approximately a solid week's worth of work. I went through a medium, fine, polish, and wax on EVERYTHING, including the windows to get water spots off of them. Maguires is GOOD stuff.

kleicoupe: I'll post up pics when the JIC exhaust system finally comes in. I'm thinking a big single tip out the side at an angle will look cool. Post up pics if you get to it first!

Yep, I went with the G S-Techs because the drop is low, but not too extreme. I'm trying to keep it as clean as possible, and sometimes a really low drop makes it look kinda like a Honda (all Hondas around here are slammed for some reason). The ride is very good for comfort, and the springs look to be quality made.

I wasn't completely feeling the headlight and taillight overlays at first either, and took them off to see what it was like without them. The car literally looked ugly IMO without them. I've got so much black that it just made the headlights and taillights stick out like a sore thumb. I like the headlights specifically because it tones down the extra chrome on the headlight so that the factory grille pops out more - a piece I'm trying to focus attention on. So I had to buy overlays twice (Plus, without them, the gold on the wheels was clashing with the red on the tails, so I had to tone the red down a bit.)

Oh, and just to let you guys in on a little secret:

The Kylumzyee Illusion lip has been installed a bit lower than normal by using a piece of treated 2x wood I put it up there to space the lip down and give a solid mounting surface all along the bottom - I simply couldn't come up with any other good idea on a spacer.

As it is installed now, the extreme top part of the lip is BARELY covering the extreme bottom of the factory front.

My G's got "wood" haha.

I still can't decide if I like the way the lips look on the 06 bumper. Sometimes I fell that my car needs it, other times I think it is a bit much.

Is that Klumzyee's lip on a sports bumper or non-sport?

I had my tint guy put them on while he was tinting the rest of the car. He did it in a whopping 5 minutes. If you put them on and don't like them, you can also pull them off in 5 minutes, and they leave no residue or sign they were ever there.
