    Yeah I get what you mean roach. You shouldve seen how bad it was before I fit it. I almost said "fuck it, conversion time" but with some ingenuity and a few beers later I figured out how to get it fitting right and I'm pretty happy with it. I can't wait to see how it all comes together after the rest of the stuff arrives. :D
    And senior Mack the reason why the Toyota thing looked black was because when I took the badges off to paint it, the guy painted over the tape. *facepalm*
    Also for senior macks. I bet you didnt notice the blinkers on my side mirrors.lol also my ultra JDM wiper wind deflector. Lmao

    You should post a pic from another angle or one a lil further back so we can so the lip flows with the rest of the car. But looks good tho. When doing your 5sweep swap its best to start gathering parts now, just my .02

    I always thought Rainbowstar should have molded that the entire way around, looks strange just halfway done.

    hmm. same car in the junk yard? and hows the tranny feel? strong? weak?

    and the ride on ksports is great. usable damper adjust. with the right tire i can slam my car on the ground. not as stiff and i wish it could get. and not as smooth either. some fitment issues with some tire sizes. Next coilovers im gonna buy will be bc coilovers. those are better for the same price. how much is he asking for them?

    yeah that looks good man, the head lights still have that aggressive look to them. I guess you've got your front plate off for good (seeing it (barely) inside?)

    How much?

    So just started college, broke (sort of) and this car is giving me issues.
    Needs new tires, new front struts, new brake pads, passenger fog light cable is loose somewhere (light turns off at times)
    Priority: Brake pads > Tires > struts

    I'd totally buy your TRD lip kit, if I had the funds that is lol. I just picked up an authentic TOM's kit for my car for dirt cheap, but TRD>Toms.
