So after getting rear ended at 50mph while I'm stopped, getting lied to by an insurance company to think I'm getting my car totalled, then getting it repaired and dealing with weeks of delays, and spending all my medical settlement money to "ease my pain and suffering," here is the final product:

a few suggestions - red-out your tails and scratch off orange paint of your front turn signals (they'll still glow orange) thumbsup

Not sure I've ever seen his/her ride. I knew in my mind what I wanted, and when I saw Immo's ride, that sold it. He had everything I wanted, but a different wing and rims. Oh... and the turbo!!

I'm not quite sure about the redded tails thing. Contemplated it, but on the fence about it. As far as the turn signals, they're being switched to the Silverstars that are blue but shine amber. Thanks for your comments dude!

No, it's cool man. Don't mind the comments at all. I do like his smoked headlights. I have a set of TRD style lids in my garage. Had them on, didn't really like the look. They're painted to match also. They rise up above the car too much. I'd rather go with Bat's vinyl.

Any idea where I might have come up with my screen name? rofl The plates did come first. But I do get a lot of strange questions about what people think it means. The closest being "Carribbean Blue" the worst being "Cornbread Blue" cry

Truthfully, I'm not a HUGE fan of it. But I picked it because few people had it. The only other choice is the TRD/Kaminari/Rod Millen/WW spoilers which have no individual identity. I wanted to be unique. Plus, I think it works with the overall package: a quiet, reserved body kit with a loud, aggressive hood and spoiler. As far as I know, I'm the only one with this exact set up. Score +1 for originality.

The Tanabe brace, where did you pick that up from Zero? Is it one toned or colored like the APR? I'm sure I've seen it but don't recall it.

Nice job! The car looks great. If some one asked me beforehand about fitting that wing on a car with the kaminari kit, I would have said it's too aggressive and don't do it -- but it looks nice. No doubt with help from the invader hood, looking all mean and stuff smile

If I have to make a suggestion for improvement, I'd say do something about the tails. That's about it.

thumbsup For a nice car.
