Exclamation Warning: Explicit Content TLS

Finally finished up my car today, earlier than anticipated! I fit my custom WW front lip to my JDM front bumper thanks to silvertl510 (Pedro) who parted his JDM front to me and installed my long awaited Mugen wing as well. Met up with my boy Mike (xmikojaix) and we snapped a few pics together. Here are a few shots from today. More professional shots to come with the weekend. Reppin for sac town wassup.


fat ass

Mugen wing

JDM Mugen front, hence mugenspire
Enjoy friends

i absolutely love everything but the grille.

i think a saber/inspire grille would look much cleaner, and still fit with the JDM theme.

The mesh behind the grille should be black, and the rear looks lower than the front, but I love the Mugen parts, good work. Plans for wheels?

New set up.

Yea the mesh is temporary the old mesh fell off on the freeway so I bought a quick replacement and I hate it. Switching it out this week. And going a tad lower in the front too. Wheels and air are next. Getting my fenders trimmed and cut this week too. Will reveal wheel details later once I'm closer to gettin them haha. Keeping it a surprise!

You'll get tired of the curtains real quick just letting you know. I had my Belleza ones and i sold them prob the next few weeks. As for my JP neckpads i love them and still have them. The same ones you have, only nich i have about them is the type of leather, its darker and diff from our seats

Nah I won't. Had universal curtains for a few months or so and got tired of them but not the JP. JP>Belleza anyway. The JP neck pads are comfy as fuck though. Haha just repaint my leather to match the neckpads.

I meant to put "I'll just repaint my leather". So I didn't actually haha. Only cause the neck pads are slightly darker but it doesn't bother me it's only cause the leathers so old in my car. I'll probably just detail it. Going to wash, wax and detail my car later today too so I'll be posting some more pics and I'm going to try and change out that mesh in the grill as well. More pics to come!

Just my opinion bro but the rear doesn't look good at all, like the suspension is busted. Car looks good otherwise. I need that spoiler.

i think the brand Mugen is what makes you like it (your usename kind of points to that lol).. its a cool piece, and rare. but on a cosmetic level it just doesnt look as good to me as the other's mentioned.

i felt the same way about my saber grille though, so who am i to talk....

and lower that fronttttttttt
