I kept the badges other wise my license plate may not make sense

lsturbointeg · 04-18-2017, 10:47 AM

I think without the badges being there cleaning is much easier since you're not trying to clean in between the #'s and letters

Power washer makes quick work of that

I need to remove my badges. Except I dont' have a power outlet in my garage, nor is there anywhere outside to park to heat it up lol. Struggles.

Eh... I vote no bro! I even thought about the carbon fiber eye lids and I think the white looks better in my opinion.

Perfect stance!! Looks like you took the majority advice on lowering just a tad

+1...should look better once the wheels are back on.

r u getting them refinished in another color? or just the one repaired?

ItBloo · 04-20-2017, 02:25 AM

I just got a fresh set of H&R OE Sports. Going to install them next month.

Doing a road trip up to SF beginning of May, so I'd rather wait until after that. Not digging the idea of losing alignment mid trip...

Just the one repaired. But even after I get the wheel back I'll probably roll on these for a few months just for a different look

Looks like a girl batting her eyelashes at me. I'd remove those red roundel inserts too. I think the other mods you've done look great and are enough to set it apart from the masses. The eyelids and red inserts are just a step in the wrong direction. Keep it clean, man

xxpanipuri · 04-21-2017, 07:23 PM

I washed her...and then took some pics....
