    Added eyelids and more chrome...I might have overdid it with the chrome. I'm feeling iffy on that bottom piece. Going to give a few days and see how I feel then

    Yeah, that much chrome on the bottom is too gaudy. Top looks fine.

    Got a few pics of my stereo mods. I went with the JL XD700 amp, with focal access components up front, and coaxs in back, with a 10" W3 and sub volume knob. It sounds great.

    Damn bro! That looks sick! I vote if you plan on keeping those wheels then put a 10mm spacer on the rear and a 5mm spacer on the front. Or buy my wheels. :p

    As much as I want CT200 wheels, there is a local set for $500 without tires, I'm going to look at a set of tC wheels tomorrow. Guy is asking $175 with tires (30% life)

    The good 17" tires are a grip after tax and install. :( I missed the $70 rebate so mine were over $700 installed.

    PM me and maybe we can work something out if you are willing to meet somewhere near LA on Christmas.

    The eyelids remind me of your avatar.

    Installed a BP rear deck spoiler I got from Nigel. Didn't care for the black look. Pretty easy install considering the directions came in Japanese.

    Haven't done all of this today, but since getting my PiP, I've added LEDs to footwells/doors/license plate, got the nifty PiP sticker installed on a plate frame (thanks WinterGPip!), blocked the grill, and fixed the silly filled in logos.
