Ditto that comment. Otherwise very nice. And paint the vent/s to mach. That draws more attention than a CF hood unpainted

Nice list of mods, and a stock-looking exterior; I like it. Any more info about your water injection setup?

-s-

edit: It does look like you're missing the stock lip. This is the one that came on my '94 Base model.

Not sure to tell you the truth. I bought the car that way. I have wanted to paint them but its not the stock paint job and I am afraid that the color wont match.

Thinking about painting the whole car satin black anyways so havent worried about it too much.

It is an ERL water injection system. Sprays automatically at 10lbs boost.

I do have the front lip but took it off when it kept scraping - the car is super low.

Thanks for the positive feedback overall!

Do you still have the stock headlight covers? Those need to go back on. Other than that...

car doesnt look super low , but then again pics can be deceiving. rims gotta go IMO. Other than that car looks clean. Black vent doesnt look to bad.

It's not bad. I agree with the other comments about the lip and black vent. The car just doesnt' look right without the lip or the black vent. I would get some new rims. Those are alright, but i'm not a fan of the gold on red thing.

The Car Look Nice. You Do Need The Lip Back On It Though. If You Like The Black Vent Than Keep It. I Like It.

I have the same vent/ducts predicament. I think it looks ok with my car. And here is another vote for the lip to be put on.
