New exterior plans for my GSX

[ILLiCliPSE]

Just a little photoshop I put together..I added a RMDSM lip and an OEM cf hood. Im getting some grad money and thought of doing some exterior mods and I thought htis was nice and clean.

Sweet,what did you use to paint the sidemarkers with? is it holdingh? i just want to slightly tint mine..for a smoked look.

how did the hood install go?

I like the CF Hood on it , but the RMDSM Front Lip is total junk you will breaking with in a few weeks if your lowered ...I used to have one with my Eibach Prokit's and there was a dead animal in the road and well good bye RMDSM lip ...fixed it with some fiberglass and about 2 months later I came across a bridge that was not level with the road and distroyed it again ....still have it and I don't feel like fixing it or putting it back on I have ordered a better lip and it's just sitting here waiting to be put on it does not sit near as low or stick out as much ...here is a link to it ...and it's only $75 plus shipping beats RMDSM's price big time http://dynamicmotorworks.chainreactionweb.com/product_info.php/products_id/38

Ha , i just saw the smoked corner lights.. so thats what caught my eye.

So , anyone ever paint thier corner lights before?

edit.people have been searching through the VW AUDI SKODA SEAT parts bin for years(esp here ) , all of the spoiler lips are rubber and you can tweak them to fit very easily..and theyre cheap too.

My side markers are actually smoked in real life I didnt touch them in photoshop. I sanded them down, sprayed a charcoal candy over them, and cleared them. I work at a body shop so I had my buddy chris spray them real fast. They came out awesome.

Im a big fan of the RMDSM lip and have wanted one every since I saw it back when I was like 14 . Plus its not that hilly in Florida, so I think itll be ok. Atleast for a good while. Im going to sand it and throw a coat of clear on that as well...keep the abs plastic color, just real shinny .

Not a fan of the RMDSM lip, but the CF hood will look nice.

i love my rm lip...when i first got mine i had it painted gloss black to match my rims....but the next season i had to paint matched to my car, along with some other pieces...i think it looks great that way...gives the impression that the lip is a part of your bumper.

I'd "Drop It" just like her panties...
Get yourself some koni yellows and a set of eibach prokits.

Car will look clean. I myself like the lip and the hood.

 

[kromwell]

I really like that setup! That's what I'm going to be doing with mine, hopefully soon. Not too flashy, but I think it really makes the car look pretty good!

Thank you, silver exterior + CF looks badass!! Though I'd try to photoshop one of those evo style hoods, those look badass aswell.

 

[95CarbonEclipse]

I wish I knew how to use Photoshop

I agree that silver and CF look HAWT! ...especially with black wheels and a chrome lip. My old GS was silver and I had my EVO style CF hood on there and it looked great! Now that I've got my GSX and it's red, I'm thinking that I'll paint it silver. Hell, i've got all the HoK Orion Silver still from when I was going to paint the GS.

CF hood for the win! (esp OEM style)...Keep it clean

You lowered it?

 

[mitsumikey]

Lowered, cleaned up front bumper a bit (dirt,holes,and filled in the cut part left by removing black piece), shaved antenna, changed emblem color

 

[typhooneclipse]

very nice look for the car. any ideas on what you want to do next? i would shave the door handles and get rid of the spoiler, but thats me. once again nice look for the car. not too flashy and very clean

Only thing I don't like about that RMDSM lip is that it makes the front bumper look way disproportioned from the rest of the car. Meaning that the front bumper looks a lot lower than the side skirts and rear bumper. It just looks weird in my opinion

I have ordered a better lip and it's just sitting here waiting to be put on it does not sit near as low or stick out as much ...here is a link to it ...and it's only $75 plus shipping beats RMDSM's price big time http://dynamicmotorworks.chainreactionweb.com/product_info.php/products_id/38

Yeah that is a pretty sexy lip

I can attest to the fact that this lip holds up very well, i have dragged it on alot and it doesnt do anyting but scuff cause its ABS plastic. Plus it looks really good and is a very subtle change to the front end.
