The grille is the Carson Tuned one, but I believe they discontinued it so I bought it off another CL member. I'm lowered on Tein CS. It's close to being slammed on them.

Nice new look!

The finish on your new rims complement your paint color better than black.

Also now your front grill with emblem gives your ride more depth.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I'm running 225/35/19 and 255/35/19 with no rubbing issues at all. And the lip kit is from Vertex. I believe L-tunedparts.com has the kit in stock. Which wheels are you getting ktown? Post some pics when you slep them on!
