Looks good; very stealth. What did you do with the other two driving lights?

I wish I could say yes. Unfortunately, I will be parking on the street in Chicago (heresy!) and I'm sure those lights would be broken within a week.

Nice! I really like the darker wheels, they fit with the rest of the car quite well. Gotta love the body-kit, too!

Kinda off topic here, but since some people are posting their "Before and After"s...

Before:



After:



Take care,
Leo.

Looks great. I especially like the wheels, if/when I finally go for wheels I am going to be looking for something darker, anthracite maybe, to go with my BRG/B look.
