yeah i painted them with the tires on, paint doesnt stick to the tires very well and comes off pretty easy with a wire brush. I did not paint the inner lip.

wait let me get this right you took out the stock raidator and put in a honda one. Man good luck with the overheating.

Nah, not a honda (threads are different I believe).

I'd like to get the fogs to run separate from the headlights also and I really like those smoked turn signals

diablo2184 Jan 18, 2008 01:08 PM

yea i did my fogs too

EvoooB Jan 18, 2008 02:16 PM
