Thanks a lot VT, must say w/ those new pics all your mods look first rate
That grill DIY looks like a lot of work but the results speak for themselves.
I think I may be shopping for an extra grill since this one may take a while, or maybe it just looks time intensive

Those taillights really are a radical look, that's one I'd love to see in person, pretty amazing how you came up w/ that one. Also nice clean look w/ the headlights very classy touches w/ those.

Look forward to the side skirts you're working on, please keep us posted & thanks again!

Just noticed that VT's front sensors are flat black to match the lip and grille. On his car, I rather like that consideration. It's tough looking. The tails look very interesting from a distance. Up close, the unfinished look is too obvious, IMO. All in all, however, very creative visual mods.

First post not sure what I'm doing.

If this works I'll post more pictures.

The sensors are not flat black, they are gloss black and I only left the outter trim circle of the proximity sensors in the gloss black and painted the actual sensor my car color, Platinum Graphite, looks good for now

The tail lights do look somewhat unfinished up close because of basel and the tail light outter trim. I have plans for having a shop mold them together and them paint them proffesionally.

Honestly the whole grill project took only about 5 hours. I did it in an evening. But it is a prototype and I ordered more of the plastic mesh to redo it and have it plastic welded, primed and then painted gloss black.

I know what you mean. I didn't really like them at first but they really grew on me.
