I have a few more pix in my camera but these are jsut a few. I took the corner reflectors off. They will be painted along with the lip. There's a couple areas that needed to be shaved down a bit for the lip. Tested fitted it and I shaved it down. Shaved one side a lil too much but it doesnt matter. Can't see it anyway once it's fully flushed in.

What I did today: 25mm H&R bolt-on spacers, Eibach springs (still need to settle. Front still sits a lil high IMO), RPi full exhaust (the right side sits HIGH. We're going to bend the brackets a bit tomorrow to even it out)

Here's the pix. That's all u guys want to see anyway.

Looks good!

Is the exhaust dirty or was it coated that way?
