looks nice. Only suggestion is a grill and move the plate or put it back to stock. I hate the whole in the bumper where the grille snaps into. just my $.02. Other then that it looks sexy

Get rid of the windshield sticker and remove the front plate or mount it where it belongs. Other than that looks good.

I would get a grille and ditch the front plate. The mudd flaps have to go! I would also get rid of the decals on the door handles.

Overall it looks like the car is coming along nicely and its a huge improvement of the first pic.

I have to keep the front plate as I am a Police Officer, and if you look close you can see my LED red and blue strobes mounted in the top two holes from the stock grill. I do plan on gettnig a grill of some kind and modifying it to fit my means.

Mudflaps are on the way out, just had not quite finished removing them.

How? the all green screen drives me ape ****

Also surprised no one asked about my speaker box, its like my favorite thing though so I guess I talk it up. Its motorized so I can access what little space is left under the box.

homemade, took two peices of steel and bent them until I got the desired look I was after. Didn't think I needed to spend the $$ on the SLP mount. I can get closer pics if you want

With the face open power it off.
Press 6 and it will power on and say Premier
When it says reverse mode press 5, you press 5
then press 6 and it will be saved.
It took me a while to figure it out and it drove me nuts with that all green.
