I just wanted to reiterate how sweet it looks. Can't wait till you get your full kit on.

I put in PNP 4300K Hid's, that pics with the lights on is the warm up stage turning whiter from a blue hue.

And thanks again everyone for the kind comments

Today i was going to put on the Supra TT's but i forgot to buy new pad's . I really hope my rims clear these bad boys .

BTW: The car is actually painted a slightly off white not super white or regular white, just in case some of you want to paint your cars white.

Thanks a lot!

I got it painted at GX AUTO, but keep in mind that i did the prep work which was my first time. Im friends with mike and he just sprayed it for me. If you look very closely at my car you can see the spots I didnt do well on sanding. Also spots i didnt wipe well before paint went on. It is single stage Dupont urathane, with three coats. It's not even buffed yet. Im waiting for it to cure so i can wet sand it and buff out the imperfections i missed.

BTW your car will look sick when it's done! I was gonna get a body kit but decided to get a lip kit. Im going for that simple n clean look, EXE i guess?
