Default New ZX-2 Mods...PIAA Foglights and a Special Custom Feature...and spring cleanup...

Well CL, im kicking off another modding season and im doing it the right way, with a Big mod and a not so big mod...but both are very important...

Also I did my Memorial Day Detailing, which marks the beginning of the detailing season as well.

First, the not so difficult mod...PIAA HID-Look Driving lights.


^Ready to jet out of the garage!


^In the dark...


^The ZX2NER is at it again LOL...


^Sittin pretty in the Front Yard.


^in the light


^Chipgaurd and New Paint, the rust is GONE....also note the mudflaps so it doesnt happen again.
