-get black or chrome lug nuts
-fix hood and/or bumper
-at least use touch up paint over the rust
-switch out those hood pins for some aerocatch hood pins or hood locks. (they sit flush with the hood and dont look stupid)
-take stickers off

then it should look pretty good :)

bwahahaha, oh mike.

new core support will be done once funds come in, currently unemployed.... soooo.... blahhh... but that will fix my hood and bumper and get rid of the gay ass hood pins.

once i wash her next, since we're outta winter, i will touch up the rust. the salt trucks run amuck out here.

but thanks for the advice!!

take those rubber strips off of your inner fender lip in the back. they were intended to prevent rock chips (wich could cause rust to start) but they hold moisture and actually end up promoting more rust than they prevent.

I like polished slipstreams, they are teh hotness.

Looks good erik, and yes for some reason the rust stands out more. but still looks good and those wheels are really getting around.
