What he said.


I think you should paint match your front lip and rear lip and the car would look a ton better. Great job so far.

The car is looking good so far dude, not bad for an 18 year old.


I suggest you remove rear wiper, paint lips/grill, and lose the tow hooks.

Thanks!! and to everyone above the lips and grille will evenutally get painted to match, i was thinking during the swap so the bay gets painted and shaved too but as for now theres chips and scratches everywhere around the car so it really wouldnt make sense to get the lips and stuff freshly painted....

and any other suggestions on what should be next?

i love it!
but id say spray the side skirts black to match both front and back lips also spray your numberplate surround black too.

maybe get the side strips removed?

looks dope!

They are ctr replicas, titanium color housing w/ city lights and no signal reflectors, they were from Taiwan from a buddy i know over there my oems had a leak and everytime it rain it filled with water so these were suppose to be temporary but after they were installed i was amazed by the fitment so i kept them on
