Just upload them into photo bucket and then copy and paste the IMG link in your post. Most forums will only let you upload so big of a photo

Best looking GP II out there! It looks like you beat me to the color matched trim. I plan on doing the hood scoop and grill trim too though.

I will post more pictures tomorrow... I dropped the car about an inch more and will have more light so you can appreciate the colored headlamp and tailamp rings.

Wheels look great! I was thinking the same as you, it just needs a drop. Are you going to retain the factory coilovers?

I did retain the factory coilovers but did drop the car to the max which is not much. It's actually about an inch but I like the way it looks.

What I did is that I ordered the black ones from the dealership and I painted those instead of the chrome ones. It's more difficult for paint to stick on the chrome than on the black ones.

Waiting for these pictures and sound clips is just as bad as waiting for r2fanatic to finish his build lol. Both amazing builds!
