future plans include a Megan ez coilover kit for a more aggressive stance than the 1" lowering springs I had to put on for now due to the car coming with cut springs, I have a set of 19x8.5 & 19x10 Maya DTM rims I need to have finished to put on when I get the coilovers, and want to put together a turbo kit for the car.

I hated the yellow bumper lights, I saw a pic of a GS on here that was black with color matched bumper lights so I figured id give it a shot. I like it. it was either that or have them filled but my body shop bill was high enough already and they agreed to paint them free but filling them was a whole other story!

Very clean. Nice find. Also, those wheels look very familiar.
