Looks great but if you wanted to take it further paint the door handles and the chrome around the windows and lower it a little more and it would look so much better then great.

Agreed, the door handles and window trim look out of place. Other than that it looks real clean.

Man, that looks great! I love how those wheels "pop" in silver. Very clean, the headlights and grille pull it all together, front looks like a 03 CL at a glance haha

Us 3G guys can get away with more aggressive set-ups if we actually sack up and do it. Unfortunately there is only a few guys who choose to go that route.

Sorry for getting off topic OP

^ you'll have to make them


as for the op, car looks great, grill matches mine.

only thing, i think that sliver strip on the side of the headlight needs to go. i removed mine and painted it black its a little pain in butt but worth it.

i hope you don't mind me asking what tire size you're running? Rubbing issues?

I think your stance looks perfect

A Specs look horrible on your car, you should give them to me, I have a WDP so I know they will look good.


JK Looks very nice, I'm just hatin'
