Chrome rings have been removed but can easily be put back.

I agree with you there. Your ground effects actually look pretty cool... but the front piece is what totally ruined the look of the car with ground effects.

Also, like others have asked, how did you remove the mail slot? Were you the guy talking about how... you took it to a body shop and they filled it in with bumper repair paste, and then just mold and paint over it?

when you take off the rings, can they be left off or does it look unfinished? can you take a pic and zoom in on the lights?

thanks

BTW.....car looks beautiful!!!! Great Job

Hylton, that is one very clean and FACTORY looking custom. To the untrained eye, you would never see the changes, but they look good. I really like the painted ground effects, especially without the front (i think the front peice makes the GE look too import like).
Super job. Sweet back end.

Thanks but you're asking me to show you pictures that you've just looked at to tell me my car looks beautiful. You already know the answer!
