It didn't cost me a dime, but apparently the shop had to buy it. It's only right since they're the ones who lost it. I was told that they ordered it, but it's been a few weeks already and I'm still waiting...

Damn, that's not good. Well, at least you didn't have to pay extra. You're right, it's only fair that they paid for it. You gonna make your way to Irvine this weekend?

Really? Wow, I was actually on the verge of getting that color during '04, but I ended up special ordering because the car they had didn't have bi-xenon or convenience package.

Is it just me or did they change the granite grey? I could've sworn that the one I was gonna get didn't look as blue as this one?

Either way, your car / color looks great!

Still looks great, regardless. Wow, it must really pick up more blue tones from lighting. Either way, really does look nice (hmmm...maybe I should've gotten that color instead...LOL).

Took some pics the other day, uploaded them to my computer, and WALA!
I took the CL Type grille off, I think the car looks better without it, what do you guys think?

I'm looking for a 2005 Stock grille, so if anyone of you guys want to sell me theirs, just send me a PM.

The last two pics show the rims I am looking forward to install, which one do you like best. And yes, they are photoshopped! Please have a little bit of imagination, I'm still working in my skills...

Have fun!

Looks MUCH better without the CL grill. I'm not a fan of the CL grill... As for the rims, I like the first set (not the 1/16)

The first set of wheels looks sportier and the second set looks more luxurious, but it depends what look you're going for. Get the updated grille and flat badge.

Thanks for the replies!

FYI:
The first set - New Brabus Monoblock S wheels.
The second set of wheels - Carlsson Style 1/16.

I need the updated grille.
ANYONE has one?
Can I purchase this from another place or website?

And I am kinda inclining towards the luxurious looking type of ride...
I think our cars are not that fast enough. If I am to give the car are sportier look, I should also be considering some major mods to the engine...don't you think?

Instead of appearing....let it be....what it is.

What kind of grill is that? It looks like the CL styled grill, but without the star.
