I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

ZOMG. Yeah

build threads. post pics & specs & brag about your ride.

I originally had a set of black housings. They did the same thing. It's worth it to spend the extra money and get a set of CTRs. If you want the black housing and not gunmetal, pull a set of oem headlights apart and spray em.

I'm probably going to just invest in some CTR's. I know they're worth it, and it will be better to have an OEM part, rather than some sprayed ones, that look half-ass, ya know? (Thats what I did with mine...but the lenses are just wack)

So maybe in a few paychecks I'll snag a set :)

+1 for the CTR's.

I dont know about the front lip though, maybe if it was body color i would like it more but that thing looks HUGE. draws more attention to your front mount though, :up: :down: depending on how you feel about that being more obvious. like the wing from the side pic but think it would look cleaner if it sat more flush at the base.

Thanks! I've always loved the chargespeed lip...I'm just trying to get my exterior to fit the lip. Its still a bit off and I want to do a few extra things, but its definitely one of my favorite mods on the car so far.
The bumper is being painted today, along with the lip. I'll get pics up :up:

Yeah I've seen your FS threads...I'd take that off your hands if I had a HB...then all I gotta find are the side skirts!

And yeah it is :)
