I like everything except the sprayed tails, the vent visors and the faded yellowed fender side markers, other than that looks much better than when you bought it, LOVE the exhaust work, must sound extremely mean.

You gonna do your front windows tinted too? Would make the look more seamlessly black IMO

You're heading in the right direction in modings. I do agree with Ricky on the blk out taillights though. The clear/wht signal lenses stand out too much.
Ricky, don't hate on the window visors. I got them too

but your car is such perfection I can't hate on yours! I guess I just never saw the reason for them unless smoking a butt outside the window in the rain lol

thats why we mod our cars to our taste and we're all unique though, definitely not hating just pointing out not my thing.

OP I think a set of the $240 red/smoked LED tail lights would look awesome on your ride

Welcome aboard! Your X already looks miles better... all black has "evil" written all over it.

Looks good!!

That's a lot of good stuff done in 2 months. Have you decided on what performance software you will be installing?
