The OEM pedals are tiny. I changed mine out to a bigger set and it made a big difference in feel. I don't know, the OEM pedals are a constant reminder of cheapness to me.. :what:

If you are willing to wait, you could probably sell your lip and grill for like $50 and find an OEM grill elsewhere for less than $50 or ask him to throw in cash, because he probably thinks the OEM grill isn't worth anything.

I would tell him that you do an even swap for the grills and $25 more for the lip.

went to the junk yard and stole some stuff "pockets aint empty"



i picked up on 2 main realys just in case 1 did not work

Good luck with your license test man. Really watch your speed. I failed for going 28 in a 25 my first time haha

Looks like you've got quite a nice collection of tools started there and your classes look like a bunch of fun.
