I have tossed around the idea of painting to match the car, but I'm not sure
I may just buy some new ones all together

Well, it's no GTO, but I guess it looks okay...

Damn fine looking automobile you have there. I'd be very proud of that. Nice pics.

the car looks clean i LOVE it, i think if you change all the blue parts for black (inside the engine bay), it will look better. Like it came out of factory that way. (just an idea)

Didn't you have the Ings rear? If you complete the rear, it would be much better.

Looks great, John! Awesome buffing skillz there! Haha

I really do like that Tsunami bumper...like an aggressive MS front mixed with INGS+1 bumper without being overdone.

I need to get some pics of mine with my latest additions

He used too,, he must have dry fitted them, because he decided to donate them to me,,, I dry fitted them and it was horrendous,,,,

The Ings wouldnt have flowed with the sharp lines of the Tsunami anyway, this is why Rex decided to part with them,,,

you know what would be bitchin,,, it would be alot of custom fab but no one else would have it,,,
Bore out the side's outlets and reroute your exhaust,,, Side exit Exhuast FTMFW!!!!
Of course this would require fabbing up insulated tunnels that, at my guess would put them right at the rear passengers foot wells,,,
