DUDE, nice plate!

loving the tails and the visors! Not so much the rims but they don't look that bad either. BTW its difficult to keep that color?? I like it a lot and it seems like its relatively easy to keep it looking good. Keep us updated I just wanna see more and more!

Dave I am so loving the matching construction borders :P

No but seriously, I'm hoping that you are planning to get a lip kit when they hit the market. The wheels are perfectly styled, but the 18's I feel like are making the car "hang" per say. I think a lip kit would help "hug" the rims well and give it a more complete and balance look.

But so far, I am loving it

No lip kit for me.... I'll be dumping it this weekend to go down about another 1.5 inches front and rear

Looks clean dude. But... that pin-striping has got to go (minor quibble).

Hope you never have to deal with the shitty roads we have in the LA area. But man... I'm loving that color more and more.

Well, my assumption is that anyone who makes a lipkit wouldn't make it so that it sits lower than the bumper, or at least too much.

I have an idea, use the front rubber dam as a test dummy. I really don't think lips would protrude lower than that thing. So if that scrapes everywhere, then I guess you can expect the lip to scrape everywhere too lawlz

But then again, there are different styles. Or at least I'm hoping for a variety

How does the exhaust sound? How much louder than stock is it?

I'm going to try and do mine this weekend too. I don't think it should be too hard. From the position of the mirror I'm hoping I won't have to remove the door panel but I think will have to.

You will have to remove the door panels and route 4 wires to the main fuse area

I'd love to hear a sound clip when you have the time. It sounds exactly what I'm looking for.
