Looks good. Make sure those white seams don't have a texture to it, or it'll show through the paint.

Use the primer and the adhesion promoter on top of it.

Here it is. Finished painting it! Still waiting a couple days for the paint to cure so I can sand it, rub it, polish it, and wax it.

Mine has aftermarket paint and the previous owner didn't let me know what color my was but I made a guess that it was quicksilver and indeed it was. Perfect match. Lol.

Once I put the splits on and your car dropped, then our cars well be identical. Would be funny if we both get projectors at the same time In the future too. Haha. -------------------- |

Lol. Sorry for the late update. Been busy working. But here's how the trd rear splits turned out. Didn't fit perfect for some reason and I broke off the rivets on the right side brace while installing it.   -------------------- |

Fiiinally You had yours painted a while before I got mine, but I've been driving around with mine fitted for a couple of weeks now Its a shame that the color match wasn't perfect... But they still look good:) definitely needed on there to go with all that low and your front and skirts. So now the race for the projectors are on Mine should be arriving in a week or two... But I won't be able to put them on until after exams finish mid-June... So you still have time

Im trying to get my hands on projectors too. Just looking around for a decent price. I'm not really looking forward to that hassle of removing the front bumper along with my front lip. Pain in the ass. Lol. -------------------- |

eh? front bumper isn't too bad. Just gotta do it once and then you'll see how easy it is. I can probably take it off in 10 minutes or so now. lol!
