1) the grille is from road race motorsports – i ordered the fiberglass version and brought it to a body shop to have the paint matched
2) i will defiantly take some interior pictures soon
3) night pictures is on my to-do-list!!!…i just need to get my hands on a better camera first! (but i’ll probably still take some with my cam for the mean time)
4) as far as rear spoiler goes, i LOVE the wingless look…so it’s highly unlikely you will see an update with a spoiler on the back…i’m still considering a lip spoiler though…
cheers

I got both sets today! AutoZone had them... $49.99 for each set though, pretty pricy. But the light output is great, bright white. Huge improvement over stock! Fairly even light distribution .

Hopefully you get a discount since you work for the company

some questions.
Why the rims....they basically look like stock rims
The lows and highs.......the 80-100 bucks that u dropped on bulbs that are basically identical to our stocks
because i have the highs...you could have gotten a nice HID kit
i only payed 120 for mine
also for the works exhaust.......u payed 279 or maybe even 299 for a pipe with a tip
just take it off from the axle back ad u get the identical sound
279 couls get you a nice custom exhaust with the muffler of your choice for a nicer less ricey sound
that exhaust setup woul only cost around 50 bucks at a muffler shop cus all they have to do is bend some piping
but nice job on the color matched grille.......u might start a new trend there


also before i put this to rest
why replace yellow city lights with more yellow city lights lol



im not bashing you or anything im just stating my opinion because it makes a ton of sense.

hey dude,
The Rims: i got the rims for a serious deal (brand new too) – my ride came with steelies and i needed an immediate ‘upgrade’ and i figured i might as well keep the stock tires because they were brand new – also, they look ‘stock’ … and i kind of like it that way, my car doesn’t attract any negative attention. (i’m upgrading to 17”s next summer)
The Lows and Highs: i really didn’t want to go HID without projectors…i just don’t trust them – with the ones i have, they look better than stock 100% and the light distribution is awesome.
The Works Exhaust – i can agree with you that it is over priced, BUT, i wanted something with oem fitment! (aka no cutting or welding) and a very easy install so i can return to stock if i need to. also, the youtube clips DO NOT do justice for this axel back, it has a very deep tone and it completely quiets out on the highway.
The Grille: …i love it. lol
The City Lights: the oem city lights are orange…the ones i replaced them with are ion yellow…(i have a thing for yellow lighting. lol)
and don’t worry, I don’t take it as bashing because i have my own sense to everything. lol
thanks for the concern though haha
cheers

btw – thanks to all the others for the comments!

The grill looks very clean. I finally get to see one painted correctly. Very cool.

ROAD/RACE
