Default My baby got a facelift *pics* (56k Beware)

Well, recently had the car painted and lil things here and there, check it out.

Went from this...



To this...



Notice the ricey red chicken wire? well I found these layin around afterwards...




And then decided to go to work and this is what it looks like now...





Changes:
- removed ricey chicken **** wire and replaced with black grillcraft grill
- Ditched the euro clear corners for amber Vision corners (jdm y0!)
- Added Wings West RS front lip along with the paintjob which included shaving the side moldings, painting this and that, shaved emblems. All in all much much better than b4. Should be getting my new wheels in 2 weeks so I'll have much better pics.

What do yall think?

At least put up a side shot of the car. Looks good from the front.
