Default Ferio Update 1.1 Painted Type-R lips... Sorry 56K folks..

Okay guys. I got tired of people pointing at my white abs plastic lips so I painted black to be less "flashy". I still haven't painted my front bumper yet, but that's less noticable compared to how those white lips were. I got the 2dr kit since I converted to a 2dr bumper. (Maxboost rocks!):thumbup:

Also, I hit a truck while parking at work so on of my DIY black corners got smashed. I ended up getting amber colored lenses in the mean time.

(For better quality pix, view the pix from my imagestation album. )Album name is: Sasebonian

Front Type-R Style lip before:


I didn't take pix of the rear lip when it was white, but here's how the rear lip looked before without it:


Front Type-R Style lip after:


Rear Type-R Style lip after:





A few more shots of my EK sideskirts just for WestCoastStyle:




The pix that motivated the front conversion for me:

Nice, now you just need to paint the front bumper to match the rest of the car, plus throwing some dubs on the Volvo wouldnt be a bad idea.

I am saving to get the whole car painted as well as drpping the car lower. I don't trust my painting skills to do the bumper. I just did the lips so they wouldn't be white anymore. As for the Volvo, hahaha that's my mom's old car. It just sits there non-working.
