I think it looks good, but will def look better with the kit. Is there any particular reason you dont like the aspec side skirts? Cuz they really do complete the look

Yo man did I see you and talk to you at a red light a few weeks back when it was sunny there for a while. I talked to someone about his black roof and he complimented me on my a-spec. Was that you by any chance? I was in a silver 05 TL.

haha shit I thought so when I seen the pics. I was like I have seen this car before. I don't like the wheels in the PS but I don't mind the black side mirrors. I was thinking of doing mine as well in black because one of them has some scratches on it, deep scratches. But I will wait for a detail first just so I can see if that will help.

those type-s sides flare out already. That's a nice cheap substitute for a-spec sides. I wish my car color was interchangeable with type-s.

Hey, Your car is right around the corner from where my WDP was garaged for the winter. I see your car every time I come by there. Very nice car dude! Did you do your roof yourself? I'm about to wrap my roof soon as well.

I think the headlights (when completed) will match up well with the tails, tint and roof. To be honest, the black mirrors aren't really bad. They follow the color lines of the tinted windows and roof.

JNC also charges 150$ or more for work, then paying for shipping to Canada, then paying for shipping of my headlights to US and I am looking at a 300-400$ mod that can be done locally with a help of someone that has done it once before.

When you have dial-up internet service, you can only download 56k bits of information per second, which nowadays is stupid slow. If a thread has a shit ton of pictures and you have dial-up, it's going to take forever to load the thread.

This thread really doesn't need the 56k warning.
