Very clean car!

Your front looks real mean and I'm really feeling the cleared inside tails.

Nice car.

It's a JDM Altezza Z-Edition grille. Market price is about $180 plus.

Don't worry about the stripe, dude. It looks good....especially on a darker car like yours. And the grille looks nice, too.

And thanks, Flipside, for pointing out the Altezza origin of that grille.....that's the first time I've seen one.
