Wow, gorgeous. You did an awesome job on the wheels! What did it take?


I think a 1" inch drop would complete it in the looks department.

Looks good. Ditch the side moldings and I second the motion for Rksports front lip since it's a very clean design and wraps all the way around. Do something about that front grill!

Thanks guys im gonna do the one piece front ground effect, SS hood, Halo's and I havent had a chance to touch up the paint yet cause it seems no matter how much of an angle I turn or how slow I go here in the colorado dips it will scrape. Thus the reason its not lowered yet, and what are you guys refering to with the molding?

I think they're talking about removing the side mouldings. Lot of people do it. I'm leaving mine thanks to the blue hairs in our parking lots here
