Very nice, was there a front plate frame installed at some point? I have a very similar crease on my front bumper which is masked by the front plate frame...despite PA not requiring them I keep it on to hide it. lol

Yeah the person that had the car before me must have tightened it down to much, making the crease. Illinois requires a front plate but it takes away from the look so i leave it off and havnt had any problems with cops lol

Wow. Nice. Love the exhaust.
With the lousy roads here in New England, after a week that car would be nothing but two seats and a steering wheel.
Can you fully turn those front wheels? Looks tight.

Thanks, yeah its pretty low and i have wheel spacers so with the lower offset it even rubs more. I rub if i turn and theres a bump and i bottom out sometimes if im not watching for potholes lol. But i love the look and handling of being lowered on coilovers so its worth the risk

Thanks, i had to fix some of the photos on my mac because i didnt have a tripod so some of them came out a little blurry. Just sharpened up the edges a little and smoothed out some lines.
Thanks!, Its a shiny finish on the wheels. i used duplicolor wheel paint and clear. came out good and is holding up nicely

DOPE! Looks great 
It would look even better with properly blacked-out headlights and taillights

No worries dude, we all started somewhere. I had tint on my headlights back in the day and I'm glad I blacked them out.

That's sick man. That thing is slammed!! Makes me want to do aspec on mine really bad. How did you do the grille? Is that plastidip??
Funny you guys mention the front license plate crease...I have that too! OKlahoma doesn't require them but I guess Texas did. Sucks and I hate seeing it. Well done though! Whip looks nice

I will totally agree with the assessment that you will eventually properly black out/clear your headlights and tails! 
Clearing the fronts is free...just open up and take out the diffuser (or change out to zkw-r projector lenses for fifty bucks) and the rear tails can be bought for about $160 from unique style racing (ghost tails). They are depo but they get the job done!
Just some ideas.
