Default My New Look For Winter

OK Guys,

As some of you know I have a C-West kit on my IS. I just love the clean yet aggressive look of it. But I scooped up a ground hog or something over the summer and cracked the front pretty badly right in the middle. I still drove with the damaged front with a "stylish" blue tape job on it, which was ok being that no one cared about the hidden damage. But as of today my Wald Style lip has replaced the damaged C-West. This thing is bad *** looking and flows with the rest of the kit well. By spring I will have a new C-West front, but in the meantime this will do. I still have to trim it a little bit to get it the fit better, but for a replica its ok. I will make the necessary adjustments at the wash and wax meet.

Thanks for the grill Ryan (BernieIS)



Here I am checking clearance in my driveway.

MD didn't have much snow last year, but this year could be different. Naw didn't steal the fusa. He bought it from us.

One of the many mysteries of the world.

By the way Leroy the car is looking insane, I think that I like that better than the C-West. Still need black housing headlights.

Thanks everyone. Don't get me wrong, I really love this new look a lot. However I still love the the look of the C-West. Plus it apparently sits higher than the Wald, which was the point. But to my surprise the Wald was lower. We'll see, if I can get it to fit a little better it might stay around into next season.

You got like 3/8 of an inch clearance and you live on that long winding back road with the high dips and low valleys. Loving the look, unfortunately know that we will be reading about a freak dip that you took wayy too fast and well..... LOL!!!!
Anyways,, the looks is still killing them, as always, just cruise it low and slow.
