Gaza - the pics really turned out looking good to me. CBP FTW!

While you have the bumper off.....you could install the oem lip kit?

Thanks. Th tires are Michelin Pilots. The dealer bought me some brand new ones And the wheels are the Stock ones at came with the SH-AWD. I had to go ADW, the test drive was too much fun. I will get the front lip soon.

Fut Mods. Tein SS/ EDFC, light upgrades TBD, wheels. Want to get a staggered look but with the AWD, it's going to be a challenge. Any feedback will be appreciated.

They are.

So i installed my SR Takeda intake. Sounds great. One of the Switchback turn signals i bought is defective, POS stays amber when the park lights are on. So one is white and the other Amber. Hope they will exchange it for me.

Looks nice.

I have seen a few CBP in person with the grille completely painted and i think the look really great that way.

Just trying my best to have a different look. I have seen a lot with the grille completely blacked out so I figured I would try a partial black
