Nice all you have to do now is get some Evo9 wheels in black and get your headlights and taillights done by EVODAVE that way it actually looks like a IX. But the new conversion is nice.

Nah man didnt really bother reading.But what i meant was with the money the insurance gave to cover the damage you should have picked up Jdm Mr Headlights i believe theyre 700 shipped since one light frm the stealer is more than the Jdm set.thats all...

still looks good!dont worry

Nah. I'm not looking to imitate the IX totally. I like the blacked out head and tail look which I may one day do - but when I do upgrade my rims, it won't be to IX wheels.
