    Brought the car into the shop a few times, first reason was because i bought a new ZZP sway bar, as mine was pretty old as you can see so there's a few pictures. Also I got a new front axel as that was wearing down

    I also bought new tips off eBay, very impressed with the look, im so glad i got these tips. weren't very expensive either. Had the tips cut down a lot because they were really long but in the end it looks awesome in my opinion

    Bought new tips off eBay for a fair price. look amazing in my opinion, had them cut down quite a bit, were almost 2 feet long out of the box but had them trimmed and now look great, a little before and after pics.

    i wanted them to sit out kinda far, so people can see the tips and not hide under the bumper. just my personal preference

    like the tinted tails.

    imho tips stick waaaaay too far. tips should be flush with the bumper or a bit inside.

    and you bought an overpriced zzp swaybar /facepalm

    Took some engine pics for fun, also got some "stealth" bulbs in the mail and took a couple pics of my Amp running my 6 speakers in the car, did the hook up myself, not the prettiest but gets the job done, music gets extremely loud with the new speakers and amp. Let me know what you think. And also, should i take the engine cover off? Engine is completely stock btw.

    looking good.

    try stacking your pictures, instead of making them side by side, makes it easyer to view, just my pet peeve thats all.

    arent all the pictures stacked? besides the repair pictures with the sway bar. i couldnt get those to stack b/c my friend took them off his phone and sent them to me. all his pictures he takes off his phone seem to be quite small

    I think those tips look good on there, but I don't like them sticking out like that at the same time. I honestly like the look of the original tips better than those.

    I like the tail lights and the clear corners look good.
