i like it all black, but if you leave the slants chrome leave the top chrome also. The lower grille just snaps on, i took it off when i took the bumper off to change the headlights

Yikes!
Not sure what I think on that....
how did the interior turn out?
You haven't done the ASP pulley yet?
There's a kickasss deal goin' on in the forum for less than 600 shipped,
then return the old pulley and get like 300 back...
Time to step up my friend with some REAL mods....
Delete the SC muffler and feel the powerrrrrrr

i love black/tinted/smoked looks.... but i would have prefered that on a silver car, maybe white, or even red... but never blue.....
i told u so about your interior too, maybe you should have baught a black coupe....
but still your coupe is unique, if you like your hood this way, then get those wheels a paintjob !!

Thanks Godfather!!

So I will try to finish the LED Cluster, then do the fabric next week.

I am trying to get in on the ASP Pulley, i was first reply on the thread for it. I should be able to order it next week.

Looking for other wheel instead of painting.

man, you need a better looking front bumper or at least change those ugly fog lights with some clean ones.
Anyway the car looks very nice.

I dont agree with you , i personally love your hood but if your car would'a been black you coudn't have gotten that costum paint job, and your tails look really nice. The whole car looks perfect he.

why put a flip out when you could fit a nice d-dim? doesn't the screen get in your way to use the buttons in the back?

i like flip out better and have plans for the second din spot, i know motor problems for the flip out but the screen would last long since its not always out in the heat. i dont use those buttons often so nope

i dont think the screen being out in the heat is an issue... esp with your tinted windows. i've never had problems with mine and its been 3+ years strong.
