Primrose CL update .... 56k beware













The turbo setup is on track to be installed when I get back from Iraq. Shooting for 250whp by the summer of '07. Also I need to get a new front lip... they still have that group buy going on?

it's pretty scratched up from when i had it slammed, I'm getting insurance cash from the towing company that dented my fender up so figured wouldn't be a bad idea to get a new one and have them paint that too when they repair the fender.

i guess it could be champange gold, when i bought it from the dealer a few years back they had primrose on the paperwork.

Yeah, that house is amazing. Too bad it isn't mine though. I was up there taking pictures for Signal Reality and decided to take a couple of my car infront of it.

Here is a closeup of the damage to the lip .... It probally could be repaired again but I don't want to risk the area that was built back up cracking again. Expecially since I getting the whole front end repainted.



The story behind how the damage happend was just stupidity on my part. I had it held on by only 2 screws, one on each side of the bumper, but one of the screws wasn't in very well and it fell down and was dragged for about 10 feet or so. I patched it up once with bondo and it looked good for about 3 months until it cracked.

Also if anyone has a Carbon Fiber hood or 97 grill for sale I would GLADLY buy it. I have a set of NEUSPEED Lowering Springs -Front Lowering 2.20" -Rear Lowering 2.0" for a CL that I would be willing to trade or sell when I get back in a couple months.

5% in the rear 20% in the front. I've payed about $140 in fines for the front tint being to dark so im considering taking it off.

1. Wheels look great.
2. Drop looks great.
3. I think I like the lip not painted.
4. Blacked out headlights look awesome. Am I the only one who thinks they look good on every color except black?
5. Tint looks great.

rides looks dope bro

After a few days of emailing and asking questions I got my name on the Carbon Fiber Hood group buy! Can't wait till I get to see it in person.

Ordered a key part of the setup today as well .....
Garrett T3/T04E 57 trim


The goal is still May '07 to have the CL boosted, and I CAN'T wait. Also has anyone found a way to get this lip to stay attached??

haven't decided yet if I'm going to get rid of it ... all depends if someone has come up with a way to keep the ABS plastic one attatched.... someone already has dibs on it though if I do sell it
