Its finally done, I didnt think id get these painted and on due to money problems, but my mom helped me out and offered to pay (did i mention that she wanted them out of our storage room?

) anyways, this is just a preview cuz its late and dark and the car's dirty, so expect some fresh and clean ones to be added to the thread in the next week or so. enjoy!

you dont notice it!!!

i agree on the black. if mopar made CF lip kits id be all over it bud, but just painting it black is booboo IMO.

i've always like that lip kit on the 03s

Very nice....tasteful, subtle accent.

The Mopar lip kit really compliments the nose of 2003+ Neons.

Color me green with envy.

Thats the carbon creations lip youre talkin about, ive known about that for awhile, thats pretty cool, but its not AS cool as mine! I said too bad they dont make tha MOPAR lip kit in cf.

anyways thanks for the comments guys im so stoked about it! managed to change oil today too. sucks tho cuz it was windy and lets just say the oil decided to spray me and everything around. kinda funny but kinda gay too. haha

That kit looks wicked! I'm envious.

And when are you going to lower that off-road beast?! And don't tell me you're broke and you got school and whine whine cry cry... You just bought a lip kit, dummy!

OB · Post by OB » Fri May 05, 2006 10:42 am

the lip kit was such a good deal tho! and i didnt even pay for the paint and install. did get a killer deal on both tho. i got a deal with grambo on springs still, so i need 300 bucks for struts and im set. anyone wanna donate?

ACHEAPSHOT · Post by **ACHEAPSHOT** » Fri May 05, 2006 11:30 am

MAN OB you are one set of springs away from having a really wicked ride dude. It has come a long way since you joined us a short time ago. Great work. Tasteful, subtle, and orange as hell.

dblsg · Post by **dblsg** » Fri May 05, 2006 1:59 pm

definetly looks good... but you gotta lower that thing... its about as high as grambo's mall crawler

just get the springs now... who gives a shit if you blow the stock struts. i mean, your looking to get new struts anyways.

grambo · Post by **grambo** » Fri May 05, 2006 2:03 pm

^^he's waiting on me. His Pro Kits are on my car right now. I have not had time to remove and deliver them to him. (Picture it 1.75" lower....) Sorry OB, your catching doodoo cuz of me....haha

OB · Post by OB » Fri May 05, 2006 2:54 pm

man i cant afford the struts for like 2 years (unless i somehow land a killer part time job in sacto), so dont bet on seein much more for ahwile. I refuse to use stock struts, not only cuz the ride wont be nearly as good, and not only cuz theyll blow hella soon, but because i DONT wanna put em on then do it all again in a year. this is like half day worth of work we're talkin about here! someone give me some $krilla!

dblsg · Post by **dblsg** » Fri May 05, 2006 2:58 pm

13 months and struts are still good... c'mon your the master neon tunner remember

a half day's work is nothing when there is beer and friends involved.

grambo · Post by **grambo** » Fri May 05, 2006 3:50 pm

OK. I'll give you the KYB's for a twelve pack with the springs. They (might) be a bit better than stock and if they blow? F-it they were free and grambo wanted tehm outta' his garage. Plus I feel bad for taking so long to rip into my car.
(My house is getting painted this weekend so SOL brother. Maybe on the 20/21st. I'm booked solid till end of June now with work.

)

LC_Neon · Post by **LC_Neon** » Fri May 05, 2006 4:31 pm

The lip looks great, did you got the rear lip too?. I have the same front lip.

Is it the picture or one side of the lip is higher than the other?

there ya go buddy^

05= no i dont have the rear lip, and yes the left IS a tad higher than the right. I also noticed that, guess thats what we get for doing this into the night haha. Its hard to notice, but from the side the lip angles up towards the fender. its funny cuz it looks intentional and kinda cool, but i might go back and retape it sometime if i start getting annoyed with it. nice eyes its so minor.
