Default LRoy430ul's New Mods

Some of you all might remember when I got my car back in Feb 09.

Here's a stock pic


I installed the Datasystem controller and set to L





I got a set of 20x9" 20x10" Maya DX2's which are the same as Trafficstar DTX's












I received the billet grill as a gift, I originally wanted the JDM emblemless one.







Next on the list are JDM visors

Forget the grille: Too heavy and bad quality. I bought the same and removed it immediately. Stock grilles in chrome are available and not expensive. Look for Lgrilles at http://stores.ebay.com/Lgrilles

Yea I saw those already and was suprised at the pricing. Its funny cause my girl actually bought me the billet grill as a christmas present so Im trying to somehow sell it and get one of those JDM ones without her noticing. Should be fun....lol

ahahahaaa, sorry man but it reminds me of some stuff that i went through a while back. if she's not into cars she prolly won't notice as long as you do it quick and don't wait 6 months like i did. plus don't let her see the package sitting at the front door either,, again like i did

good luck on that one man,
