Yeah, I'd recommend V1's. Although it makes me wonder what V3's are like. I catch the bug so easily.

Haha agreed. I'm looking at some sway and strut bars next up though. I want to take it to the skid pan at some point.

Not too expensive to get, about $100 if you can find them on Ebay or about $120 from Chaplins in the US of A.
My plan is to paint the fog light covers and the side vents black. I've seen it and looks pretty hot. I'd love to add a front lip but the car's riding low already so I'm a bit worried. Any thoughts?

I believe that Ben (b32) has done the same with the painting of the OEM fog light surrounds.
I know of one member with black surrounds who may not need them any more, if you want I can have a chat with him, might save you from painting the OEM ones.

Lips looks nice, especially on lowered cars, but if you are borderline of scraping now, then I wouldn't bother with the lip.

I've got a pair of black OEM fog light surrounds you can have them if you want them. If it looks ugly, can always just take it off and put back the white

pm me for arrangements

Agree with Soksta...don't bother with lip if you are already too low.

A lip looks nice, but a scratched and marked up lip from being too low looks atrocious.
Soksta likes this.
