--- hell yeah it's cold. Right now we have a blizzard. So lame. When i did this though, it was mid day @ 24 degrees lol. You don't understand how cold i was. Me and my buddy were literally frozen. The stupid locks aren't working because i am missing that relay, but i had someone offer me it for free locally. So i should get it tomorrow if weather permits. Thanks for the kudo's as well.

Question: What was wrong with your first 98+ bumper???</TD></TR></TABLE>
--- Thanks, and yes i know.
- I was looking for a 98+ Rear Bumper, and "vladd" came along and said he had front, rear, and headlights he was willing to sell for a good price. The green one ALSO had the front grill cut out. So i didn't mind at all to get a new one, i am all about keeping the car looking stock. So i received my new bumpers and headlights, and sold my old set. When i get my IC on my car, i plan on having it black and behind the grill of the bumper. So nobody will really know whats about to hit them. :D Idk if alot of people are like that, but OEM and keeping it clean is what im about really.

what tires are those? the tread looks nice. thats an odd size though... 195/60's dont look good IMO. I had some on my car when i bought it, now I have 205/50's, i think they look alot better.
and, I like the way youre car looks lol. all mismatched and stuff, i dont know why, but i like it.
but paint is good i guess
lol
edit: oh yeah, did you retrofit your headlights yourself? how much did you spend?
edit2: read around, and noticed you did do it yourself. anyways, are you getting your rad support straighted at a shop? how much is that costing? My rad support needs it BAD. sorry for being annoying lol.

--- I have 195/55/15 on them now, so they are the same i got, just a bit wider. For the price i got these also, there is no way i could pass it up. I was in dire need of tires anyways. I haven't gotten the car aligned since i lowered it, and i raised it for the winter. So i need to re lower it and then get aligned and then get those on. The tires were 100 bucks for all of them. They are dunlope street drag radials. Super good deal.
my friend likes the way my car looks too lol. He says, even knowing it needs paint job, it had like a certain "nice" look to it. haha. idk how he see's that or you. All i see is potential.
I did my retro myself, this one was my first. I did a bunch since then though, and im about to do another for my car and sell these. I think i might try a different projector. The cost of the retro for me was, 250 for headlights, 150 for tsx projector, 60 for bulbs, 150 for HellaGen3 BAllast, 40 for wiring harness. +Add that up and you get $650.00. That's the entire set up too though. I do them on the side for people for like 100 bucks, it's super cheap imo. Gotta hook the fellow Retrofitters up.
As for my Rad support, im going to a local shop. My dad is a car dealer, and we have "hook ups" on everything i get done or buy for my car. Not stolen **** either, just like super cheap body work, super cheap work basically. I think my dad told me, about 50 bucks to do the rad support.

man i wish i had hookups....
yeah, I really dont know why I like the way cars that look kinda like project cars look. I used to be all about, super nice looking exterior, but I care alot more about the function now. thats why my monies going towards coilovers, cams and new valve train now...
and **** 100 bucks for those tires, i retract my statement about them looking bad, its irrelevant now lol.
well maybe when i build up enough money and a good reason to spend on HIDs, ill hit you up with questions. because that retrofit looks really nice.
good luck with the build, i cant wait to see where this RS is going
