    the lighting makes it look lighter than what it is, but its a grey leather like material.
    Im whatevers about the color right now, might change it later down the road.

    thanks again to @putaariawan for the idea of removing the blue background on the front emblem
    I love the way the full black looks over the blue outline!!

    Looking good buddy! Is that the eBay lip? Did you paint it yourself? I'm thinking of painting it white also too with Pearl. I saw plastidip with pearlizer can get close. Is that what you used?

    thanks man and yup thats the infamous ebay lip with pearlizer plasti dip

    I got it professionally painted once but I accidentally hit a dip and destroyed the paint LOL
    So I just stripped it and painted about 2 cans of white plasti dip + 2-3 coats of pearlizer

    very surprising how close you can get it to matching.

    that lips been through a lot though LOL it fell off on the freeway, twice haha

    @adawg nice bro!!!

    Damn how did it fall off? Do the bolts not offer sufficient holding power? (Holding power...that's what she said...lol!)

    once again, it was due to my poor judgment and driving haha

    during this time I just recently lowered my car so I wasnt use to the ride height.
    Theres a few dips on the freeway and I accidentally drove over one of them.
    My lip caught the road and folded under the car and ripped it right off the bolts LOL

    so embarressing, had to exit and get back on the freeway to pick it up.
    the sad thing was I drove passed the lip like 3 times.

    But the bolts do secure the lip pretty good but the double sided tape is what really holds the lip in place to your front bumper (if that makes any sense?)

    the tape always sagged so I got fed up and just zip tied it.
    hope that helps

    Your car looks cool, is it only lowered and with that eBay lip, no bodykit? If that's true I need to lower my car immediately! Love the clean look of your car!

    This was from a few weeks ago. I never had a good before after pic of my tail lights but found one on my tinter's Instagram this morning.
    For a film I am happy with how it turned out.
