i think that if it was a different color and didnt' have the Saleen wing everyone would be on his jock. but that paint scheme does have to go and the wing is ricey as hell. but you have to give the guy some props for all the work that he did. most of it was custom too. i give props but i wouldn't drive it. i think we should all respect his ride though.

if it didn't have the grill and wing, i think a lot of people's minds would be changed.

Nope...
Wing, BMW Grille, Color, Shaved Door Handles=

I would paint it Aegean Blue or Black, then that car would be sweet and not so gay looking.

im sorry peeps but i really like this car... the shaved handles make it look really clean and my fav color is yellow too hehehe sorry but it must be the asian in me... the one thing i would change tho... the SALEEN wing... that is outrageous... the luxury car of ours should be subtle when some civic pulls up next to it, and when the light turns green and we stomp on the gas pedal their mouth drops and they just got taken by a car thats almost twice their weight... so i would keep the color... wing gotta go tho.. ewwww...


As for the yellow caps in the fogs... YES please help with that... i have been trying to take them out cause one is faded more that the other and it pisses me off.. can someone help me out???
thanks

LOL. Funny how I mentioned that.

KaMLuNg, just do a search like TLover said. Its the easiest way. Type in fog lights or something. It will come up. Trust me, this has been discussed more than once.

No problem man. Heres the instructions.

1. Unplug the bulbs.

2. Remove the rubber cover and the bulb.

3. Look inside the housing. You will see a philips screw on the bottom and one on the top. Just loosen the top screw and remove the bottom one. Then the whole assembly comes out. (If you take out the top screw it will be a pain to get back in.)

4. Then you twist off the yellow cover and put everything back in.

5. Done!

i actually think it'd be really cool if we can find out who this dude is and have him join our site. i wouldn't mind getting some input on some of the things he did. i still love the shaved doors though. that looks slick, but must be a pain in the a$$ to get in and out of the car.
