Yup... I see you have the grill and the tow hook.


Nice. +1


Personally I would change a thing. Just drive the damn thing.

I cut just enough out of the grill for the tow hook to slide through. Took about an hour to get it right.

I actually like it. The grill is custom made by a previous owner. Makes people smile and is a conversation starter.

Absolutely hate the tow hook (such a useless eye sore, in my opinion, but really, really love the wheels.

The front "baby teeth" (factory tow hooks) cannot be used with the grill, the rear tow hook has been on the car since I put it there, because racecar, and it's not obnoxious.

Both of them. I meant to make that plural. And you can almost never go wrong with 5 stars. Especially polished or chrome.

Agggh. I just think they look so obtrusive on cars. They stick out, to me, in a non-pleasing way. I certainly don't mean it as in insult.

No insult taken. Criticism is a constructive part of human interaction.

With this car I am trying to make the point that you can have good fitment without being "stanced." That's the overall theme. Because I really don't like cars that run ridiculous camber to make wheels "fit" the car.

I'd leave it just like that...simple, clean an reliable....no bandwagon crap FTW.

looks good. maybe just de-badge the rear and give it a good detail. Get the red paint to shine and the black vinyl/plastic have a nice finish (No shiny black plastic trim please)

If it would fit the Honda or Toyota I would buy it off you. But alas it will not.
