Is that the stock grill? Looks kind of different for some reason. If it is, its mounted more steeply, almost vertical....right?

thanks guys!

let me try and answer everybody's questions

let me start by saying the bodykit fit like a glove
the bodyshopthat installed it only does custom work, they've been on the cover of superstreet mag
many many times.. they said veilside was the easiest kit they have ever done

Manaray: im glad you really like it.. i can throw on your rims and make it black if you like

Bobcat: i shall see you sunday installation cost me $1500.. took them 5 weeks ( alittle too long for my taste )

Lextacy400: those rims are L-Sportline Model I Evo.. they cost me $6500 with tires

Chino: it fill really really well

Bliu: not selling any parts sorry.. might need them eventually

LexusRules: thats a ghosted logo that was painted with pearl color from the car.. the hood hasnt been wet sanded yet.. once done the edges of the logo will dissapear

GsIntensive: the hood does NOT come with the grill at all.. and i didnt know this till the kit arrived
I was under the impression that the veilside grill/emblem was part of the kit but it isnt, any grill will fit.

Intelexual: yes it is the stock grill


thanks for the comments guys

Erick:

What time to plan on getting there on Sunday? I can't make it down until early afternoon. My guess is the place is gonna be a freakin' madhouse .... CROWDED. Do you have any idea where CL is going to meet? If not, what do you think we should do about it?

I had been looking forward to this event for months when I thought it was a meet. It's not a meet. It's a drag-strip event with thousands of people that we'll be LUCKY if we can find each other. Have I just been working too hard, or is that the way you see it?

i didnt' see if the hood acutally had a hole in it, is it a functional hood, is it just for diplay. But in any case, that car is sweet. Congrats

Erick,
Where do you live in MD? I live in Silver Spring off of Briggs chaney road(about 1 1/2 miles from mo/swift racing). I'd love to see your car in person but I gotta work this weekend so I don't think I'll make the meet.
