I like what youve done Dbo ;)
be good to see some more photos and like fmj says nights shots would suit the dark menacing look of your lude. I wasnt sure about the new spoiler at first as its got an unusual look from the back but the more i look at it the more i like it - it looks like it should add some stability at high speed - in other words its got function and form :)
the projector head lights were a nice addition imo i take it youve removed them - what was the problem?
debadge at the front ftw ;)

cheers for the comments :D
Vanzep: no problems with the projectors, got them all wired in but they wont take HID bulbs :(
and being ukdm two piece just not my thing ;) would love to get the one piece jdm ones retro-fitted for the look :)
my sprayer guy is doing my rear o/s quater panel next week and i have smoothed over the aireal hole as VS type 2 spoilers wont let you open the boot with it up :oops: :lol:
and then he is going to laquer my carbon wrap bonnet and sunroof and respray my front bumper (once all holes smoothed) he has some flexi additive he can put in the paint and colour code the spoon lip in as well :D
so i can be all show and no go :lol: (untill i start under the bonnet!!!)

yep the one piece jdm black backed lights would be good
the tips of the spoiler that hang over the rear quarters give the lude a better look/broken suspension look when viewed from the front of the car - a pleasant surprise given that ive always thought that was one of the weak parts in the body shape of the 4th gen
id seen the gear shift that youve got on ebay and thought about buying one but i couldnt quite get my head round how it would look - again it looks spot on. have you got a short shifter as well?
more pics please

thank you all :D
yes to the short shifter in the form of ebay adapter one :(
it has three settings but two are useless, top hole throws stick so far foward 1st gear is through the sterio :lol: the bottom hole moves stick so far back you can not fit the centre consol :shock:
so middle hole it is :lol: (but i would kill for a FM or good home mod real short shift)
the shift extension is real comfy as you change gear without taking your arm of the arm rest :lol:

tried to get some night pics :oops: tip:don't try with a ruddy Iphone 4 even with flash bugger all :cry:

Looking mean Darryl 8) Obviously I love the Type 2 spoiler ;-) And I much prefer the JDM one-piece to.

Keep up the great work :D
