Looks great! Now paint those calipers red and add a red pinstripe to the wheels to give it dimension

ive been thinking about red calipers because of the red in the badges and the back window but im not a fan of wheel tape or paint. i left the chrome lugs in there to kinda make it pop but i think once i throw the blackout kit on my lights ill prob throw the black lugnuts in.

i got the 5 piece tail light, 4 piece side marker, 2 piece reverse lamp, and 2 piece driving/fog light kit, all acrylic from RPI designs, in today and will probably throw them on the car tomorrow after work.

Fair enough lol! I used to be called the "oil pan assassin" with my last car. I had NO clearance and my driveway is a little steep. Took out the pan 3 times in a year haha
