More pics soon guys!

Calirfornia: I'll be waiting a while before I even consider that. Right now I'm content with what I have now, just need to use that money for clothes now instead of mods since I'm happy with what I got.

Here's a couple of pics, just took em since you guys asked for em. I'll take better pics within the month. Enjoy















In some of the pics, the car doesn't look low, but it's just the shadow of the car over the tires what make it seem like there's a huge gap. Trust me, it's low.Also, the driveway is a little awkward, so the car looks tilted.

Looks good! Very unique.
Only thing is, I wouldn't have changed the bumper. Always thought the 05 was more unique. It had this AMG feel to it...

That looks great, but a gloss black roof and matte black Mattig grille would put it over the top!

Thanks all!

Blake: Yeah man, I'm gonna get that grille from you for sure, just need to wait till my pops' car is out of the shop so I can use it while I wait for your grille to do the ol' switcheroo. I also found out how to modify the grille to fit the prefacelift bumper.

Charlie: I know a few places to do a nice shoot. The parking structure of the plaza bonita mall is nice, just gotta make sure we don't get jumped. Also, the place where I took my pics I think was a good spot. We'll make due.

Midnight: Thanks bro, that's a big title to take, don't know if I wanna do that.

Seattle FTW! Haha. Thanks again for the painting, I ultimately got euro strips because the strips that were on my facelifted bumper didnt fit. But they did me good for a while.
