Rims look great, reps or not. Glad you are taking care of your family. Taking care of your kids and sending them to college is much more important than a set of rims on a car.

Thanks. In the spring gonna drop it. Currently in the marker for a full kit or just a front lip. And possibly cover the roof. That's the plan for now.....

Ya, that exhaust has got to go! Is it just tips or rear mufflers, if its mufflers you can probably just cut it shorter and maybe paint them with high heat black paint.

Front lip and a drop will finish your car off nicely.. Good job!

Thank you RDIS250AWD, all the blood, sweat, and tears were all worth it! Did all the work myself other than the roof, front lip, and rear diffuser, that's was all done by the body shop.....

Thanks fellaz!! It's funny about the lip and diffuser. I couldn't find a kit that I really liked. I only like a piece or two out of each. Those two were my favorite! And I still can't decide on a side skirt but I already installed the VIP LEDs so it staying put for a while, lol, plus I like that I am able to go over speed bumps and driveways without scraping, it just clears it. All the funds have depleted anyways, ha ha.

I was trying to load my pics originally but it always failed, think it was too big. So I exported it as a smaller file and that's how it came out. I'll try again soon....
