Default my mini mod day yesterday

had the day off yesterday. perfect time to install the parts i had laying around.

had the bottom piece of the v limited lip spoiler installed. the install was much easier than the top part. took two people half an hour to install it. i also had my front jdm pink sti badge put on. taking off the grill was sortava biatch... the screws behind the grill was a biitch to get to!


got some engine bay bling. arc's titanium pulley cover. this thing must add 30+ hps!!!

thanks for laughing at my car. personally i dont think they look that bad. they're not the orignal supplied screws because they were too short... i was driving around to lots of hardware places and they didn't anything that was long enough. so finally at home depot, i found just two of these darned things that fit. ghetto or not i had to make it work. good eye tho! shows attention to detail!

I would love to put that lip on my car, but I know that I'll rip it off the car by accident.

I so badly want that lip + skirt but I can't bring myself to spend nearly $500usd + shipping (to Canada) to get it. Ugh. It really completes the look of the car in my opinion but that's $500 that could go into a set of springs and a couple other goodies. Hehe maybe I'll treat myself to both.

The lip looks good completed. Fills out the lower front end perfectly, imo.

Edit: ^^^ what Digi said.

McMaster-Carr
