Updated pics. Nate is putting a body line back into the car. Everything is very subtle on my car....it all flows very well in my opinion and if you didn't know or see it next to another one, you may not have known work was done. That was my ultimate goal...simplicity. The lip is something I had laying around from when my wife had a TL. I was joking around one day at the shop and put it under the car and instantly loved how it looked. It will be molded to the bumper seamlessly. Adds a bit of aggressiveness to the front end that was a bit bubbly in my opinion. The entire lip will be white...no grey.

A few more updates...bodywork on the fenders and quarters is done but Nate is holding out on the pics. lol He also started working on the customized sport bumper. Adding the lip ended up being to low so I had him section it and only use the ends. LOVE the results thus far. Should hopefully be getting it back this weekend.

The last two put it in perspective. Its gona look nice. So does this mean another set of wheels will be bought for more agressive stance?

Nope, this is how I wanted it to sit. Any more aggressive and it goes back to rubbing, hitting, etc.

That front bumper is just sick, it's such a simple mod but makes a big difference.

I've actually considered something like that...between the two low portions on the sides going across the middle. We'll see....
