So, fixed that broken liberal grill I have ( a real one btw, just overlaid in cf) rewired my heads so that my highs don't light up all the way when they are on with my lows, looks kinda like DRLS, and installed a lip I found laying on the side of a country road, required maybe 2 minutes of cutting, and it fits damn near perfectly, the grill and lights are done completely, the lip isn't actually on yet, but there was no trimming necessary on the ends, they match up nicely to the ends of the bumper, I will actually install it once I sand and paint it since it's kinda scuffed up I'll keep it on until I get my VRM bumper, anyways, enough talk, here's the pics...

oh, got the fog light covers repainted, they will go on with the lip

First light coat of paint is on, test fitting it yet again, let me know what you guys think
I know the color is silverish, that's because of the primer kinda showing through the first coat, it's obviously not done yet

So i did some rallicross events recently and they really chipped up the paint on my wheels. Since I've decided not to powdercoat these since I"m getting new ones soon, I went ahead and repainted them. 3 coats of magnesium blue, two coats of gunmetal, and two coats of clear. Only got the rears done so far, don't mind the rear drums, they are coming off today since the weather is finally nice enough to work on the car. I love the way the wheels came out though, cuz from distance they look gunmetal, but if you're close and the sun hits they sparkle with a bluish color

Finished painting all the wheels, the car is filthy, but this will give you guys an idea as to what they look like in different amounts of light.
