Excellent choice on the front lip! You'll love it.

Always good to see a manny here, especially a 320.

Are those rims heavy?

nice. sweet Ducati too.

What type of footwell LED ( ozium cathode or ?) and where did you tap the source. Did you install a switch or those the footwell light trigger on when doors are opened ?

Thanks

Not sure about the LED foot lighting, i've used it for my motorcycle in the past as small turn signals and had two left over, they were kinda expensive, like 8 bucks a peice. I bought it at a truck stop (tripple T), truck stops have great selction of LED lights that truckers use to light up their cabin. This is wired into my cig lighter, so it only comes on when the rest of the interior light comes on at night.

The rims are not to heavy, i would say like 24lbs? dont know, didnt really care for this car because it is not for performance. I also was not sure about the chorme because i never really like chrome but decided to give it a shot due to the bright silver color of the car and the chrome accents the car already has. I think it looks good.

Funny thing about the car is I was looking for a auto because i wanted my girlfiend to drive but found this car in mint condition and low mileage so i could not pass up.

UPDATE:3/18/09

AMG style rear lip spoiler from JBSPEED. fitment is very good, color is dead on. very nice peice..


JBSPEED Carlsson front lip.. again paint is dead on but the lip does not fit pefectly, minor adjustment needs to be made, i did minor sanding to get it to fit. also item was damage during shipping, part of the top fiberglass crack and you can see it in the driver side picture. Also the double sided tape that was provided for the lip was crap, there was no way it would have held the lip on secure enough, i put screws into be safe. The lip also bowed out a bit at the side, see attached picture. over all the lip for the price with paint is good, im just disapointed in the crack that was due to shipping, i will contact the vedor to see what he can do.





Here are my smoked side markers, very dark smoke, i got clears on order so i might post these up for sale, PM me if intrested. They are OEM markers that was smoked out, light still shines through.


Some overall pic of the car,




Night pic of the 6k HID, yellow fogs, and bad picture of the new flat hood emblem and carlsson lip

Get rid of the dark sidemarkers. Go color match or clear. The black looks out of place... Other than that: sweet ride!

Honestly, I'd ask for a refund due to the crack, and not take a replacement. That fitment is unacceptable (unless the lip was very, very cheap).

Rear spoiler looks good, though. You're batting .500, which isn't bad, all things considered.

dbvolz:
read the post above, i did the smoke side as a temp, clears are on their way. thanks for the comment

Tommy:
he seems not to want to do anything about the front lip, all he said was to talk to fedex and deal with them about the insurance. kinda sucks because the lip was slightly damage but it did not fit well enough, you can see in the picture above. A little dissapointed, it look good but not like he claim ( said that all parts are test fitted on a car to ensure fitment) my car has never been in an accident and the front end has never been taken off. suck about the lip but the spoiler is great.

dupee13
JBSPEED.. I would recommend the rear spoiler because it fit and looks good.
