It looks great but that lip looks like it could use some re paint and clearing up the headlights, but over all I like it. Even the 17s

yeah the lip needs to actually be replaced, its cracked here and there and i had painted it myself which is why its kinda bad lol The headlights im going to do when i get a chance at work but they are just such a pain to wet sand and buff cause they are so small and round lol its why i havent bothered with them but im going to take the bumper off so i can get to them better and wet sand them and get them cleared up

After you clear them up you should take them to get clear coated.
Cracked is no problem, mine is cracked a lot and you did better painting yours than I did with mine

yeah im going to have our paint guys hit them with some clear coat

im getting some type r style skirts and rear caps and when i do im going to get the whole car resprayed. theres a local shop here running a special starting at $399 and includes:

*Chemically clean entire vehicle.
*Machine/hand sand entire vehicle.
*Apply adhesion promoter to vehicle.
*Apply sealer as needed.
*Apply 3 coats of single base coat color.
*Apply 3 coats of high gloss clear coat for maximum durability.
*5 Year warranty against peeling, cracking, and fading.

as for specs i have another post going over that with the things i could think of off the top of my head. Car had a blown motor and dropped in a JDM B18C. I do need to get a tune though cause the car is running a little rich

yeah it sounds like one of those too god to be true deals but they are an actual collision center so im hoping they will do a good job. I really want to get the car painted canary yellow but i dont have the money to get the whole thing painted a different color with engine bay, jams an ect.
