Not feeling that filter though! :lol:
Looks great polished.
I say paint them silver.

You want it to be a sleeper, black will just draw more attention to the car. I do like the chrome though...

although, don't paint them, powder coat them.

!st I had to sand the shit out of it to get the fucked up paint job off of it (I bought it like that) Then i used mothers aluminum polished. I did it all by hand.

The intake didnt come with the original Injen filter which is narrower than the standard cones. Thats the only one that fit and it was only 20 bucks at Advance Auto..

Im gonna leave my wheels silver as they are..

How much is the front lip going to cost? It's probably gonna cost a testicle.

If I order it like everyone else its only 103 plus tax. That includes the front and rear.. he is gonna order it and charge me his cost, but ill have to pay for shipping. All in all I think it might be the same price either way... maybe less.. we'll see on Monday...

Looking really good montell. It seems like your lip, hood, and spoiler are all the same red color.

So when are you gonna install and paint everything?

I'm looking forward to seeing this done.

How long ago did you come down here to get 2 of your msd wires melted?

Damn, I didn't know the heat down here was intense enough to do that lol.

Maybe you shouldn't come down here :(

Like 2 years ago.. The heat mated with the extreme underhood temps of the srt4 made them melt.. SRt4s run hotter than regular 2gns. it sucks..
