Default Photoshoot #1, 2008

Got bored, so I decided to go out to find a good place to take some pictues. Keep in mind this was spur-of-the-moment, so the car is not washed or detailed.

Blah, blah, blah....yeah I know. I am planning on lowering it 1" after I get my y-pipe tucked in a little better. I had to drop the pipe a little because I had clearance issues with the fuel lines. Thanks for the comments tho

I like! Looks awesome with that grill. I'd just change those smoked lenses back to the stock ones IMO. mainly because the stock orange side markers flow better with the color, espically when they are on. Does anyone else agree?

Yeah I liked the stock ones fine, but the smoked ones accent the painted headlights and black grille a little more too. I am also planning on changing my grille to an SLP SS grille, since I've had this one for about 3 years now and it's time for something different.

You could paint behind the grill black so it will add depth to it, in stead of spending $200 for another one. Just a suggestion.

Naw, I like the look of the orange behind the grille. Besides I'm gonna be getting my front fascia and hood repainted, because of road rash. (used to be a Texas car...)
