Looking good! It's a solid start.

Do you plan on getting wheels?

usually i dont like CF hoods on OB evo's, but i think the sticker saved this one...

if you were to get some black wheels, i think it would make the combo work well.

Hmm... gold wheels might clash with all that CF.

I would save up for better wheels and in another color. If you paint the hood, gold will work but that exposed cf with blue and gold might be too much.

finally someone got off their butt and tried the LEDs too!

I can't even count how many PMs I get about it, but they're all too lazy to try it - just wasting my time

looks great! it's weird seeing it on someone else's car haha

Why do people cheap out on XXRs? I would save up some more cash and atleast get something like RPF1 level.. I know XXRs had a big rash of wheels cracking.. Maybe they fixed them now but I would never use them..

And plus the gold with fit great with all the colors going on here.. Red, Gold, Blue, Black..

I cut the plug of the OEM fog harness, and use that to connect the LED harness directly.

The LED will turned on if you switch the headlight on and use the fog light switch.

I wonder if I can switch the LED without the headlight.
