I'm with Sik shave the door indent shave the door handles the antenna. Change the tail lights to the new type of LED's and there is also a new set of projector headlights out without that yellow marker on the corners. Also shave the front two holes in the bumper and you will be all set. Well that my $.02 Other then that the car is dope!  |

The kit looks good with the molding to the body. My only issue is, if you're going to go to all that work, why not cover over those useless vents in the sides of the bumpers and the square holes in the front bumper too? They serve no purpose and look tacky. I would have filled those, and done something about the indent in the doors too.
Other than that, it looks fine.

That headlight fitment is FTL as it is right now... The tips stick out too far in back, and I am not diggin the tail lights... maybe tint them?
I like the paint job, for what it is. Why didn't you shave the spoiler and radio antenna?

well to start, the body kit i got off motorweb.com and as for shaving the door handles and antenna that was a little outta my league of body work, i am only 18 and the seamless was hard as is. the headlights are ziptied in because the header panel is broke,
 . and i havent had time to make custom mountes yet. as for the holes in the bumper i think i will hack those off and cover them wen i repaint the caralong w/ the indents on the side, i couldnt figure out how to make it look good because it goes in and out and behind the door it bulges out...the car is an se so i decided to leave them. where is a good site to get door poppers? and i cant find any decent spoilers either... thanks for the comments too! |

i think it looks much better now. as everyone has already said, it would look 10x better with the extra bodywork if you choose to do it.

Your age doesnt have anything to do with your ability to do anything. But besides that I think its 100000x better than it was. I didnt read but did u change the blue color too? I like the darker blue. Headlights need to be fixes but they are nice in general. Bumper you should def get filed in. But all in all..good job..Rims are 2312312312312x better

Always been a fan of this car.
Headlights look better, rims look better, the only thing that bugs me is the tails. Idk what kind of tails would go good with that paint job, maybe tinted? iono.. Still looks good |
