Install the mud flaps. If you do not, may you spend hours on the highway following another cheap b@$tard who does not put them on his car. It makes a HUGE difference in visability at speed in the rain.
Make a small sacrifice of your vanity for safety.
After all no matter what you do to it is still a squat little CUV that is really quite plain.

Where can I get good spacers and what size should I use 8mm??? The back when we put the rims we lowered it and it does not rub so it would look that flush in real life... but honestly I kinda got use to it without the drop and everyone seems to like it. Plus NYC is pothole capital.

But if I do find the powering springs I will definitely drop it. Thank you everyone for your positive comments.

Shit must get real hot under a sunny day. Expect the interior to bake an extra 10 degrees than it normally would. Looks good though.

no no, on spacers. Appears your offset is good, unless you want a baja jeep look. What would look sweet is the vinyl 3d 2k cf laminate up there vs paint.

I know of nothin' but problems with spacers.

I think the 07 to 09 are good looking and then the screwed up the front end for 10 foreward. I think the black on the beak of my 111 would look good.

I absolutely love the blacked out look you have done. This is going to be my next mod for me as mine is white as well. It would have been awesome if you had done it yourself so that you could explain how to take the grille off to do it.

Looks sweet! Mine's black but I keep thinking about getting the carbon fiber wrap for the grille, hood, and top. It would protect against wear and tear, and you wouldn't have to paint anything..
