finally got her back on the road , what you think?

ive never done chrome so i thought id do it.... ill probably end up trading or selling them down the road.... but its cool to have some

what body kit do i have? i pulled that **** off a fc in the junkyard for 20 bucks lol
( got the rear in the garage, got to cutout the exhaust tip hole more)

you love my custom gold apexi n1 exhaust lol

plan to swap in the turbo block i have around and aim for 350 wheel or so

wheels are liquid force statics in chrome 18x9.5 and 8.5..... 20 or 25 offset i cant remember... i wish i could have got all 18x9.5s but it was a sick deal on ebay got em for 430 shipped.... to get another pair of 9.5s would cost almost as much as a set of wheels lol ( in chrome that is)

what you think?

Damn, that looks pretty good. I've never seen that bumper before, it kind of looks like an S4 bumper transforming into an S5 .

Actually I have only seen probably 3 or 4 with this front bumper. If someone wanted to see if shine wanted to replicate it I wouldnt have a problem shipping them mine to make a mold from.

I am not sure that is the same one. Mine has slits on the big inside to slide over the little grill on the stock bumper. Mine also has little tabs where the turn signals are
