Car is looking good man

I like what you've done with the grill too. Ever consider opening up the lights and either doing them body color or blacked out?

Damn poor exhaust lol, hope you get everything fixed. How exactly did that happen?

those 20" black m1 luffs you had..
should've kept them, would've looked sick with this setup.

test fit i know the car isnt on the ground but i had to raise it back up so they could take the car to the exhaust shop and go into paint to have the doors blended and the rear bumper painted again cause the base coat was a little light on the first pass.
