If you are going to get the skirts painted look at new front lips... like the GReddy one. They are cheaper, like $150, and they look a ton better IMO. They aren't rice either like body kits... they just take the place of the current front skirt, not the whole bumper.

wow, ur car is exactly how I want mine to look, down the the rims and everything. This is what I would do differently though:

1. Black housing headlights
2. JDM corners
3. tinted bumper lenses in front and back
4. My rims of choice Zeo BZ-12,gunmetal
5. OEM chrome H on hood
6. bodycolor Mugen type grill
7. Neuspeed sports on AGX
8. chrome around windows(not black like yours)

Other than that, very nice:fawk: These are the rims I want:


And this is what my car looks like now

I will be retinting some time this winter while the prices are low cause the previous owner put cheap tint on and it is starting to turn purple. I will also be getting my skirting (front rear and sides) and grill painted this winter. The antenna is staying - I like it.
I was just about to tell u to retints the car. Wat kind of tint u wana get? I prefer limo.

All I'm getting is red X's - Try fixing it cause I would like to see your ride.

I just used black electrical tape on the chrome and it worked really well. If it doesn't make it through the winter, I am going to paint it in the spring.
