What have you done to your P5 today?

some people like all black, some people like all painted
its a matter of opinion really

all black doesnt look bad, i think it looks better then half painted sometimes
 
I personally think it looks cheap and tacky to have a car that has a lip just thrown on it...if it were color matched or half/half that would look ok, but that looks tacky...

I like it, have you thought about painting the front grille trim silver to match...that would look really clean.

The car looks great, but you ought to use the kit that they designed for your car...

im actually testing to see how the mpg is with the rack before i invest in the correct fit kit. i may go hitch and rack to keep the mileage up. but if i can pull around 30 with the rack unloaded then ill keep using that.

plus the civic fit kit looks almost the same as the p5 one. so if i mod the rubber feet, itll fit like the protege one. clips are almost identical. same kit worked on my grandmothers 01 focus perfectly too

Thanks! The mods I've done can be easily reversed or taken off to quickly return to stock if needed, so I haven't thought of painting anything. I have toyed with the idea of getting the DG grill, but don't dislike the stock grill enough to really do anything about it.
 
I got my rims+tires today :) too dark to take pics now but I'll take some tomorrow. 18x7.5 +38 gotta replace the drive axle before I can put them on though :(
 
Washed and Detailed interior and exterior today.
also installed a new headunit and ordering new front rotors and pads today :D
