OEM Kit and Headlights Installed **PICS**
After having my car for 2 years, it's finally all coming together. I just installed the kit this past weekend and did the headlights today. Comments are of course welcome. Enjoy guys!!

thanks for the comments guys. the exhaut is actually not touching the rear lip. it was a concern to me before i installed it, but after adjusting it a little, it doesn't touch at all. i think the headlights and the kit made a world of a difference in appearance. i can't imagine how i was riding w/o them for the last 2 years...

Nice pics!! ![Big Grin](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
P.S. You installed your intake wrong. That metal breather bar/tube you see in front is supposed to be taken off when installing your CAI. Well, it isn't wrong really but you'll end up damaging your hoodliner if you like to open/close your hood a lot.![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
P.P.S. Don't worry, I did the same thing as you.. hehehe

thanks for all the comments guys. i actually didn't do the headlights myself and i got them from a member on this forum. he was parting out his car so i hopped on it.
i would lower it a little more but then it makes it hard to drive and you always have to worry about rubbing and scraping. it's about 1.5'' right now and i think it's perfect for every day driving.
ever since the kit and the lights, i can't stop starring at it... does anyone else know what i mean??
