All hail the "K". This was my dream to do a complete K-swap, but my finances didn't allow it. Maybe next year, I'll do it.

^^^That's NOT cool man. In order to remove the front lip, means that they had at least 10 minutes to do it without ripping the entire bumper off to get to it.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Sounds like the same guy hitting u multiple times try to stage something and catch em. Like if u want to stay up all night roll ur windows down some and put something slightly valuable inside and watch. Catch him and shoot em

^^ i agree. but you can get in trouble if its just for breaking into your car so after you shoot him you have to drag him inside your house so it looks like a b&e

F thieves. Good thing it was just an ebay lip and not a rare HFP lip or something though. I think it's the same person stealing parts off your car too.

I really love the look of your car. I have pretty much the same except its a coupe. I like all the black and silver, currently in the process of making everything darker, did the rims, headlights, tint all around. gotta do tailights still and maybe some fogs, i like the look of yours. Did you paint the new lip by yourself?
