Default Boxzila got some new shoes and suspension, 56k afk

FINALLY got my suspension and rims on, and figured it was time to update SL with some of my latest work! After slapping on the new shoes and suspension i washed, claybar-d and waxed 'zila to make it super clean. Here are some pics from today's photoshoot.
what's new: Giovana Ararat rims, TRD suspension (shocks, struts, springs). Also elipser axleback exhuast, halo headlights, silver stock grille, red tails, 2nd set fogs, debadged.













questions? comments? fire away.

ha standing out is what matters. mine's got plenty of scratches and rock chips, it's a daily driver in suburbia.

Yeah I need some body work done, I feel like it will cost too much to mess with though.

You should order a set of keyhole covers from key techniques, they really tie the car together, its subtle but worth it.

Yeah i looked into get my rear bumper painted and fixed, they wanted like 400 bucks. no way am i shelling that out.

I'd get them, but my battery has a tendency to die every once in a while because of my own self or if my remote start starts the car, i can't unlock it with the remote, so i gotta use the key. if i could, i definitely would.

now what's really tempting is getting the rear wiper plug and taking the wiper off.

which? the lower grilles are already silver, and i feel like the top grille is a bit to expensive for experimenting, and it kinda keeps the color running through the car
