It looks amazing on all the other colors, black, grey, blue, but I just didn't dig it on my car... And believe me I was really disappointed because I really like the TTE lip too.... I dunno what it is... Like on this car, it looks proper, it looks as if it should have came with it out of the factory, Anyone else feel this way about the pearls?

^ btw very clean ride man well taken care of, dig the smoked side markers on that looks really good, almost hard to notice, giving it a semi shaved look compared to the clears that stick out like crazy you know. But I guess you coulda pulled that off because your headlights are do dam clear too lol!

Clear fog lens cover? Which are you referring to exactly? Clear fog lights? Confused on that question..

I've never been a fan of those window visors honestly, but the ones you have are actually really nice man, there very subtle unlike the rest I usually see that stick out like dam wings... Good choice. These JDM or something?

I agree with you. This GS looks like very nice. Nothing over the top. It's simple yet it turns heads. I'm liking the way it looks.

Whhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa you bumping up the old pics. No this was done before anyone tried to market any kihd of Power Dynamix kit on CL. That was a kit I pieced together using a combination of SRT parts, universal parts and some research .
