Looks pretty good. I like ones with more detail though, it kinda looks flat white. And your fog light assembly... did it come silver? Looks good...

BWAHHAHAAHHAHAAHA....
as for the foglight assembly question, no it didn't come silver, i went to the local paint store with my paint code, and they mixed up a batch in spray cans (3 to be exact) i removed them, washed them, sanded them, primed them, and painted them....to about 4 or 5 hours to do...easy as pie. (unless you don't know how to make a pie, then um...yer on yer own)

My buddy who owns a shop in town, his brother drives a ZX4 and just replaced his front bumper with a polyurthene thing-ma-jig, and didn't have the recesses in the bumper for the clear corners. He did have them on the original bumper on his car, but doesn't need them now, so i asked if he would sell them to me, and he just said "here ya go, take 'em"...so i did a happy dance and put them on my car.

Honsetly... I didn't mean to quote the entire topic. :ph34r:
Just re-reading the quote and... :wtf:? I didn't even know I could other threads while out of them.

Yeah, suits the car, so well done...I wouldn't put blue or white bulbs in them though...you'll be jacked up by 5-O, well, maybe...
I think that a set of rims from the ST170 would look awesome on your car...ever considered them?

Looks great. A subtle mod.
My only suggestion would be to get a set of wheel locks. Unless my eyes are deceiving me, I cannot see any locks on your wheels. For a few dollars, a set of locks can save you having to pay for an expensive replacement.
Cheers.

Needs tint.
KIDDING!
It looks good, but doesn't that screw with the side reflector requirements of an amber reflector? Not sure if that was addressed earlier. From my own past experiences, being on a first-name basis with the local Polizei is a Bad Thing.

If they wanted his wheels, it wouldnt take much to get a locking nut off.
I know because I lose mine all the time :lol: and I have no problems taking my wheels off using the right tools. ;)

Technically you are breaking the law by not having amber reflectors on the front/side of the car.. but unless you're giving the cop a reason to pull you over and ticket your car for mods you shouldnt have a problem. I've been running amber bulbs in my clear bumper lights for almost 3 years and never once had a comment about them (although I've only ever been pulled over once in my Focus).
Just dont go crazy and put blue/green/etc bulbs in them and nobody will even notice. It's only when you're getting pulled over for something dumb like colored lights that the cops are going to pick over your car looking for violations.
