the side markers are not my fault bought the car like that from the dealer. yeah everyone says that the side markers are off by alot. lol. new fender should do the trick.

yeah the mesh grill came on the car also. but it was silver so i painted it black. looks alot better. new SIR bumper should fix that all up. gotta save up the loot for that though. hahaha.

thanks for all the positive responses.

yeah like i said earlier can not help that it has the mesh grill. bought it that way. but soon enough will have the SIR bumper with the foglights. think that will make it look a whole lot cleaner on the front end.

The car has been dropped to the ground today. need to adjust them driving habits. lol.

the grille sucks, but, overall, it's definitely better than before.

the hood, grill and lip look cheap.....

i think that brings the car down a lot.

has great potential though
