Projector lights and the JCW carbon fiber Aero wing arrived and installed!





Some adjustments were needed to get the beam projected right. These made the stock bulbs much brighter. I can imagine not having to turn on the head lights if I swapped these for a HID kit. They have these slim ballast ones (DDM HID Kit Slim Ballast) and it's only USD40.





It's very subtle actually.

It was a pleasure to meet you Izso. Thanks again. :biggrin:
Hey good meeting you too. The paint is awesome man and don't know if you noticed but your car was a head turner everywhere it went. And thanks again for the housing! Figured out how to remove the front glass already. Needs a bit of cleaning, water stains and all!

There was an exhaust shop in seapark but the fella close shop liao. I think any exhaust shop can do it. It's not expensive. Just find the tips that fit from the shop and then get them to weld on for you. :top:

Got a MSD coilpack, Nology cables and some Denso Iridium spark plugs in a range colder than the standard.



The old stuff. Getting rusty at the tips. You should have seen the spark plugs before I discarded them...



All done.



I also went ahead and gotten a tow hook. Only cost RM40 bucks. The red is a little off but I think it looks pretty alright.

Got it all from Calvin at Eurotuner. Support him a bit. I can't remember how much. Nology cables was what he carried. I kind of like the red and the blue combination actually. ^_^

Okay, so the slightly off red tow hook was starting to bug me and a couple of peeps said they didn't like it either.

What about black instead... Better? :biggrin:

Replica. Shedden (Exoticmods). I think you can get the replica kit almost everywhere. It's around RM1800.

Original kit Calvin (Eurotuner) has...

DC, thanks for the info.

Did u get yours fitted at Exoticmods? How is the fitment and material quality? Are the grilles original? Looks really good.

I've fitted mine with replica bodykit as well but sadly the fitment of front bumper is crap at best. The side and rear is alright. Material quality is so-so.

Yeap. Fitted there. Front was not so good. Even right now, the front bumper, the sides have gaps... Finishing was very rough. My painters were complaining. The grills are original items.
