Thanks all for the compliments.

Those aren't leaves in my grill. My body shop didn't do a very good job on securing the grill so it's coming "unglued." That's on my list of things to do.

Rims are 18 x 8.5. Not winter tires. I've got Kuhmos on the back and about to put the same on the front. Currently in TX, if I can find a job, soon to be in Cali.

Sides are MS replica. I know they sag a little bit. Again, my body shop didn't do too great of a job when he first put them on. He went back and secured them, but didn't remove the original 3m tape so they stick out a bit. And since they're not the real thing, they do sag.

I thought the OEM back looked pretty good too w/MS front and sides so I opted to not mess with it.

Next up is a hood. That was going to happen by Jan, but my sis has gone from poor college student with a job to super poor college student with no job. Big sis to the rescue.

It will happen though, and when it does, it will be the Seibon KS Vented CF hood and I'll have it clear coated with Candy. I CAN'T WAIT!!

Smarties.

Candy is a red-tinted clear coat. I'll upload a pic of the MS3 I saw at SS8 that had this done this evening.
