Looks great! Any more pics of the gloss black roof? I'm debating if I should do mine as well.
Hey buddy, message me your #. I'll text you a few pictures of the roof.

You should get the boot style trunk spoiler. The back end of mine looked "undone" until I put that spoiler on it. Definitely a nice touch.

Car looks great man. The wheels look great on the car, they didn't look so good on the picture from the website .
Thanks man, I've been thinking about the lip spoiler. Can't come to a conclusion. Our trunks have a natural lip curve on them. I've seen cars that look good with the lip and some that it looks over done. Idk yet

Looks great. Bigger exhaust tips would compliment the ride as well.
Thanks brother, that's exactly what I've been thinking. Don't know if I should get a full new exhaust or only the tip. $

correct me if im wrong is that a glossy grill? if it is where did you purchase it from??? Cause i've been trying to find one and the only one i can find is either matte black or carbon fiber which i dont want
They are matte black, I took my off and painted them myself. Why waist $100 on new ones when you can do it yourself. If you do end up buying them I've seen both gloss n carbon on a couple sites for sale.

Looks nice, did you bought new shadowline, or paint or tape the old ones ?
I actually used shadow line vinyl. It's not perfect, might paint them down the road.

Thanks man, I like that Magnaflow exhaust alot!! Probably going to go with 3'' tips. Still don't know about the boot spoiler. Im leaning to getting the trunk lip instead.
