^^^^I agree, it looks great^^^^For those of us with the yellow xB's, I have an easy mod for you to do that's only like $10-$15...You know the ugly grey molding that seperates the body kit from the car...Change it out with the black molding you can buy at your local dealer...Not sure why they did them in grey anyways...It's just an idea for those that haven't done it yet...

Mine changes so much it's hard to find a good pic with all the new stuff on it. But, here is the best one. This one has the RS 3.0 grille on it.

All the best pic's are from shows anyhow.
