I technically had 4 lol, baked a set and, um, kinda broke 'em. Didn't look right silver, though, so I left my others alone. eBay is a wonderful thing, lol.

Good luck fixing yours.

[QUOTE=Nacho SS;13639798]

Its true you can do whatever you want on whoevers thread you please...my bad...

the rest of what you said is your opinion....and thats it....just because people share your opinion doesn't make it worth anything...

what you are saying is....leave my car plain jane....make it fast and its better than doin any visual mods....there is literally 1 option available for so many parts for this car....and I want mine to be different than the other thousands out there.

there is one hood....inferno...so I am making my own
there is one body kit....you dont like body kits but it will help my car stand out from all the other inferno hood inferno spoiler I am not creative enough to come up with anything else 04-08 body style GPs out there, if I decide to go that way.
performance parts out their are hard to find and harder to get....I am doin what I can, and def value anyones opinion on performance upgrades because they are less about people caring about the "style" and more about who knows what about cars and what should be done to make it go faster.
You are not saving me from ridicule....I would have to care for you to be making an impact.
If I have to wear someones decal to get them to give me parts...it is worth it to me...saves my wife eatin my *** for spending so much.

So pretty much...I do not care about what anyone thinks visually, I started this thread to see what people thought about the front grill surround and got more opinions about the rest of the car than I had bargained for...

Good chat.

But to each their own.
Yeah the lambos on the 4 door is bad planning...I would have just suicided the back doors....lol....but whatever.
