you washed it this time. grats. needs more rear mesh.

better than most of your pics posted, so i figured i'll give you a round of applause :D
 
Looks MUCH cleaner, but you still need rear mesh, a passenger side exhaust hanger, and a repaint on that rear reflector.

I kinda like them. I would change them but no money for new rims :(

yea The reflector is sitting in my garage at the moment ready for paint.
That one on it is not mine.
 
I can't see pics at work. Please tell me that you fixed that giant white spot on the front bumper?

You should claybar it......

what he said, if you said you clay barred it I dont believe you, or all you did was clay bar with no scratch/swirl remover, polish, or final sealant.

this is how paint is supposed to look like after clay bar and cleaner wax with 1 coat of polish... The car is supposed to look like its "wet" all of the time :drool:

And repaint your reflector, it looks like you crack head painted it. You need to sand the :censored::censored::censored::censored: out of it then primer, light wet sanding, then basecoat, light wet sanding, then another base coat, light wet sanding, then clear coat, light wet sanding, then clearcoat again, light wet sanding, then clear coat again, light wet sanding. If you use that basic process it will look like a factory finish, even if you use cheap rattle can paint. Its all about the process, I repeat, its all about the process.

similarly ksports, or Konis with ground controls.

D2 is the company that makes a coil over kit for the contour, strut and spring come together as a set from them, very expensive. A lot of people go with Ksports because they are cheaper and pretty much the same setup. But they are stiff as :censored:!
