Not the best shots, but just so you can get the idea on how they look. They are actually really bright because they were originally the chrome ones and not the black ones which is why I got them. I will get better shots once I wash her and put in the led's.

Same distance with lights on.

my phone was low on charge so the flash wasnt available.

Keep in mind the car has not been washed in months and I just got it on the floor.

I should have it done tomorrow or the next day I had a lot of family in town, but I have two days off back to back. I am trying to finish the DCC instal so I can put in the dash but I got stumped because I dont have the blend aculator motor for it and dont think I can use the analog one. If anyone has one I need one bad let me know. If not I will probably wire everything and save that for when I get it and install the dash and system. Still not sure about dying the old carpet but I will probably wait and buy a new one.... :gotme

How is the Rust-oleum working for you? It looks great. I was thinking of doing the same thing then painting body color over it, but not putting the interior back in.

Small Progress Update:

Just ordered my Coil overs! I got them from intensepower which saved me money but I'm not impressed with their customer service and they changed my date of delivery twice.....before the Japan earthquake...so I should get them mid May. Thats why my update has taken so long. I got bored waiting for them so I did some small cosmetic stuff to kill time.

Stance LX+ FTW!!

Got my Ichiba 5 lug conversion last week

Painted a few parts:

Also dyed the back seats.....They look better in person than pics..

This is what I used and it works great, I let it sit with some books and stuff to insure the lines were right and holding well and sealed right.

Lots of work on the interior. My taste is in oem interior, but it looks good.
I had to wait about a month for my coilovers as well.
