i was wondering why you were posting pics of a stock car. i see why now, kinda like a before and after thread.

looks good. you should finish it off with the MS spoiler too though. also some nice wheels.

Yeah, I was going to get a clear bra. But, I figured that even with a clear bra, I was going to have nicks here and there since it's a daily driver.

Really clean, I really like it!

One thing about the MS kit though, I've never liked the rear.

Also, props to my friend Dan Hong (iamdanomite) for the installations. The man knows a lot about cars.

looks very nice! in order to get away without getting new rims, for now, just get black lug nuts. it looks much better, thats what I do with my stock wheels when going to the track.

I'd rather just save up for rims. I really like the Volk lug nuts too.

Clear bra would be worth getting. I've kept my front off for 5 months waiting to find time to get it clear bra'd. My car is a daily driver as well, but it's so worth it not having to repaint every 6 months.
