i dont like the chrome lip with blue face, especially on NBP. i think it should be either all blue, or all chrome/machined.

but your car is coming together very nicely

Very nice, glad you finally got those on.

Couple things, tire shine...lower.

With a color like that, I feel like you have to be more aggressive. Overall I like it, and I'm sure you do too.

nay, i would just get rid of the Tein...

shorter springs would just shorten the life of the shocks since there would be less shock travel.. if anything, it would probably ride like doo doo after awhile.

this is why people that want really low should just get lower shock body adjustable coilovers.

Dope wheel color, car is low enough...just loose the ugly azz license plate, it doesnt match the wheels at all...lol! I like things that stand out and people that take risks. There are too many Tls on here that look exactly the same.

When I first saw these I thought you bought them from a local 3G member

Something is missing though everyone is right, Lip kit, FF's I just can't tell either.
