Default Fresh Out The Body Shop

Since I decided to keep the lude, I ditched the other body kit which consisted of:

VIS Octane front
Black Widow Side Skirts
Buddy Club Rear Bumper

After about 3 months I got tired of it and I think it made the lude a bit ugly, so....out it went
shes a little dirty, she was clean but where I live the roads are all covered with "anti-skid" and melting snow

Well thanks to the ******** at Imagestation I have to link to the album or get my account and pics deleted

Album
sign up is free
sorry for the inconvenience


Heres what I had done this time around:

Repainted OEM Bumpers
Shaved OEM Sidemarkers on Front Bumper
Wings West RS Kit
BridgeStone Blizzak LM-22 in 205/55/16(yes I know thats not the right size but it was the only size that Tire Rack had in stock for the lude )
SPC Front Camber Kits
SPC Rear Camber Kits
JDM Fogs
Koito H3C Bulbs
Greddy EVO2 Cat-Back Exhaust
CarSound 2.5" High Flow Cat

I might consider a CF Hood when the swirls on the OEM hood get to me, but other than that the exterior is done.
I have 17" Rota's on the way for the summer and I all ready have the tires for those rims
Now I pour all the $$$ into the motor :D :cool:

All comments and suggestions welcome

Looks like someone jizzed all over the rear bumper

Very clean looking car, mind posting a "before" pic so we can truly appreciate your work? - i mean, words like "Buddy Club" and "Black Widow" are pretty scary alone, but a picture IS worth a thousand words.
