Finally got the change from the WW Lip to the new Tsunami lip and my DIY Grill. The grill is made from Premium gutter guard and painted with Dupli-Color, the color is called Iron Cast, it actually is very close to a gunmetal, then I added a clear coat just to try to keep it in better condition.

Now I also threw some in the back opening but I'm unsure if I like it yet!

But I would love to hear all of your opinions on the whole thing, good or bad!!!

Ohh an here are two before shots, and the rest is the NEW LOOK!

BEFORE




AFTER

 

looks good,bro i love the tsunami lip. i wanted one for my hatch. but im torn between that and the mugen style lip.

 

sorry, i like the before pics

 

I don't really like grills, but the one you made look pretty good. Makes your front end look nice and simple.

Thats cool!

The before front was made for a 94-97 and mine is a 98+. Also I wanted a more agressive look, but after much debate of the getting a Extreme front end, decided to go with something simplier and cleaner. (Although I still love the look of the extreme front bumper)

Thanks for the comments!

 

Yeah I was trying to get the grill to blend in, but still be alittle noticable, thats why I went for a gunmetal and not totally black!

 

before pics own

 

none of your lips match it looks very jumbled it just doesnt look right youv got a tsunami front lip ww sides and oem rear doesnt look right i think you should pick one of them and get the rest to match

 

All three have clean lines, which was my main concern. I think it need to be dropped another 1/2" to look right, but other than that, I feel it cam out well!

Thanks for the opinon though

here is a better side shot, my not change your mind, but easier to see all the kit lines

The lip looks good, but IMO I think the grill should go.

 

i always ponder between lip and body kit (not the rice ones) and that looks hella good!

 

i like the lip u had on before.. it's simple.

and that grill gots to go

The lip before is actually a WW RS I lip, made for a 94-97, my car is a 98+. I bought the car awhile back and all it had was that lip on there. The picture really do it justice, because it didn't look or fit right.

I like the style, I was considering a WW W-Type, but got a great deal on the Tsunami, both are simular just Tsunami is more aggressive, IMO.

I think the grill adds to the clean look, so that is not this break between bumper and lip. But thanks for the comments and opinons.

Yes I def agree with you!
Thanks!

 

Should of kept the old lip.

 

i agree

 

I like your car alot better now.

In my opinion, its put together nicely with the exception of the side skirts. I cant really judge though, the pics are coming in really dark on my computer, however, I definitely love your NEW front lip ALOT more than the old one.

 

before.

 

after looks a little wild

 

The car looks good. Very unified.

 

I love your sideskirts and you rear - the are sick, make the car look balanced and agressive, not crazy about your front lip though, it's way too extended, if you knwo what I mean

Yeah, I kinda see what you mean....ummmm I am hoping that lowering it alitle more will help some, also I am not sure if that pic on the hill is a bad angle of it it really does, I haven't had a chance to really tell. Just threw it on yesterday and snapped a few shots before the sun went down
Thanks!

Thanks!

The side skirts are WW RS

To be honest.....when i was leaning toward the Tsunami lip I was concerned about the sideskirts, then I ran across this picture and it sealed the deal!!

 

hahahhaah, I didn't the opposite, I went from the tsunami lip to the wings west lip.
