Default My first mod

Here is my first mod - a Transformer decal, lol. But it looks nice, don't you guys think?

Does your xB transform into something that the rest of us are unaware of?

j/k... looks good except for the fact that I can see everything through the grill. I'm guessing that's the RS6.0 "special" grill that I thought I wanted; and now I don't. Fortunately your Decepticon decal pulls the visual attention away from the see-through grill.

I don't like the see-trhough grill without a logo either, and I found the decal on ebay. I think they match pretty well. I wish the car can transform into something too, lol

Well done, CIONIDE, well done.

Great job on the logo. I'm loving that you color matched it - it looks so hawt with your box. Now if only you could get a horn that sounded like an autobot transforming.

You no has box.

But I like the emblem. Try and get a real metal one, those are sweet.

When modding, sometimes less is better. This is one of those times. IMO, strike 2...

Sounds bad .....
It is 8k, but the actual color is really not as blue as it appears on the photo, maybe my camera setting was not correct. It looked almost the same as the before pictures.
Oh well, I can always switch them bad to stock, if they really don't work.

Hey whatever floats your boat. I went with 5k, glad I did. I've heard people tell me it was "too blue"
