OMFG, no way u got that for 1k. Looks clean as hell, anything wrong with it?

 

[MistahJuice]

Damn thats SUPER clean for $1000, hell it'd be super clean for $3000 lol. Like all that you did to it, good height. Not a big fan of eyelids and bug deflectors/bras but you're rocking it bro. We should kick it sometime, i'm in the bay too. Maybe go to a Too Slow Thursday meet.

Yes Sir , Yes Sir.. 1K.. Well it's from a fam member so I got it cheap. Only bad thing that happened to it was the old owner was not aware that it was overheating. It came to a point where the car shut itself off because the temp was max'd out. Luckily there were no internal damage to the engine.

Well the deflector is serving a purpose, not just for show. Good to hear another member from the bay.

A total of 70 for everything. I had to remove the DC brackets and endlinks in place of the EM1 counterparts.
.. and yes very easy to put on.
