Starting with small things for now. Painted calipers may not be everyones forte, but I like them:




Installed some 6000k HID's in the fogs along with smoked turn/marker light housings and LED bulbs:



The front spoiler is chipped like crazy and until I can afford to get the whole car painted, I just used some plastidip on the spoiler. Covers up the chips and scratches pretty well:

Before:


After:


Also installed blue LED light strips under the dash along with purple accent lighting when the headlight switch is on (under dash as well). Installed an ebay cai until I can afford a real one.

Nice touches, keep up the good work. I actually like the black spoiler better then matching the red.

Went ahead and plastidipped the rest of the body kit since it is all scratched up. A whole new look.

It's a wings west kit. I like it, one of the main reasons I bought the car. Sets it apart though I won't be abler to lower it much more.

I like the kit, it adds a bit of flair. And he likes it, so what's the harm? Also, there's a huge disadvantage to removing the kit. It's going to leave holes - UGLY HOLES - all around the side of the car. Not a good look, IMO

Added some headlight covers today:



Started out with some AVS ones, but they were just way too big, made the car look like it had bug eyes. These are made by Wade and they fit much better.

I think it makes her look very slick. Good work.
