Undergoing surgery tomorrow...hoe goes under the knife

[Narco]

Tomorrow will be a big day for the hoe. I'm adding the SS bumper, mesh grill insert, having the shell painted black, painting the rear chrome bumper black, adding clear bumper lights, and 10K HIDs to my whip.

I've also got the lowering kit (3/4) sitting in the garage. Just gotta wait on a buddy to get some free time to install it.

Nice, take some Before/After pics for sure!!

What did it run you like piece by piece for cost of each part+ paint if you don't mind saying because I want to see if prices i looked up were reasonable

i have a friend at a body kit store so its hard to say. i got the ss bumper, HIDs, and paint and labor (ss bumper, rear bumper, grill shell, HID install) all for a really good price. the clear bumper lights were 35ish on ebay and the mesh insert was around 40 from grille-tech

im gonna leave the grille insert silver for now. if i dont like that then i can always paint it black later. im also debating having them paint the rear vent caps glass black also. thoughts on that?

here are few pics of it now (installed the smoked tails this past wed):

my .02 remove the roof rack, and YES paint the vent caps.. it will look nice and clean.

roof rack im torn about. on one hand i like the looks of it but on the other it would give it a smoother line. lots of ppl on here have taken them off only to put them right back on.

take it off and plug the holes with set screws from ace hardware, thats what I did and it looks alot cleaner. The only way you can tell there was a roof rack is to look at it from above.

If you dont like it you can always put it back on easily

Sweet....Definately paint the vent caps and you know where I stand on the roof rack

It's gonna look awesome all colormatched!!
