Looks good 1sicklexus.

I just upgrade to coilovers as well, thanks to Ilama's. Like it a lot so far. Planning on doing another photoshoot in the future for ver.2. Until then, crappy cellphone pic.

Looks clean Rasta! Did you do the grill while it was installed or remove the grill to paint it?

Rash...Why does the car wash over there lift the car? Because of all the sand and such? What did you mean by you have someone wash your car in your garage each morning in the other thread lol?

Thanks bro, i actually took the grill off the car and painted it with plasti-dip, taking it off the car is easy.

Nice, looks good. Can the Plasti-Dip be taken off of the crome grill with no scratches etc? Have you plasti-dip'ed anything else on your IS?

if I wouldve sprayed my kit the same time i did the quarters it wouldve been better. I added too much pearl when i did the kit and not enough reducer resulting it being about a shade darker but not too noticeable I'll prob re do it int he spring
