Nice to see you have it back!

What is under the car for neon on the back?
Its casting a hell of a glow, atleast more then just an underglow tube usualy does.
 
It looks like it is from the license plate frame. Damn, have you ever been pulled over for that?? Blue frames are a no-no in Cali...
 
that front lip is top-choice, and those foggies r blastin!

looks good on ya!

(i would shake the graffix, bug def, and rimz thoe-look "budget"to me)
 
those are licence plate bulbs i replaced.. if you look on the first pic i have really bright clear corners, since i don't have room for those clears anymore i moved the bulbs to my licence plate bulb thingies (they fit!!!) so i guess i have licence plate Super bright blue LED's
 
i really ghetto'd the fog install.. you get these black plastic brackets for the covers that go over the fog light holes

so lets make this a little more simple

Obj A = bracket
Obj B = cover (same mesh as the front air dam)

do no install obj B, only install object A, mount fogs to object A... somehow...

the fogs i used are some... cheap projector fogs, they are in round housings.. go to canadian tire, i think they have them their (i got them from Princess auto for 35 bux CAD) @ canadian tire i think they are like friggin 70 dollars though, they are called hotlitez you'll know whenyou see them, they are in a purple box
 
Hmm i dunno... im still debating on whether to put fogs in there or not because i know making a bracket to fit the foggies in there would be a b****!

yeah im on eibachs.. i didn't realise how LOW the car was untill i started to work on the fogs tonight.. holy crap i can't even fit my head under the car.. and there is 1 place under the car where a plastic skirt kinda dips down near the front.. yeah theres like 3 in of clearance LOL i think i scrape the plastic every time i get into my drive way
 
the lip itself is not really low right?... comparing to the Autoexe lip where it is freaking low.....


the lip is basically where the bumper ends right?....
 
price for the addon windsplitter is as much as a bumper.. but insruance took care of it since i told them to throw the money from the deflector/clear corners onto the splitter...

the lip is lower than stock like an inch and the farther forward so it makes it even harder to get out of driveways and such
 
i have vision professional H7 bulbs, piaa 9005 Highbeams (free :)) and regular H3's but i will change my H3's to something... better
