Re: My Del sol build up... **From Rags 2 Riches**
car looks 10000000x better in person.. the lip threw me off at first ... i had it off after i slamed the car for a while and actually seen another del sol with the same lip and thought it looked good.. so i slapped it on and it made the front of my car look so much more aggressive.

Re: My Del sol build up... **From Rags 2 Riches**
how much was the body work and paint? did you clean up the underside at all?
It looks great! but IMO the lip is a little much. But to each their own!.. car/body style

The paint is a Lexus platinum metalic grey with 5 coats ... I am far from a ricer trust me ... I bought the lip from a racetrack vendor and thought it would be a regular mugen style lip .... Instead I recieved that... Lol I had it sitting on the side of my house for months and refused to throw it on because I thought it was huge... I then slapped it on and thought it looked soo much better since I had the car dropped 2.75 inches... The motor is a JDM Ls wit 43,xxx miles on it stock... Next to be done is my whole interior... And then a fully built Turbo'd motor

I really like the one piece lights. I've got a set on my EG and gives it a cleaner look imo.
I've never liked the color green, so I like the paint job a lot.
But, not a fan of the lip. Just looks out of place to all the other smooth lines of the car.

im gunna take the lip off .... its bottoming out alot. i need some higher quality pics, the cars paint looks alot better than it does in the pics above IMO. The headlights used to be a silver color.. i baked them and black housed them.
