#108515 Thanks, Revin! Very helpful thread!
But I just can't find if DA seats can fit on an EK if I swap rails.

#114080 Nice ride, get some EK9 headlights :thumb: would also look better if the side moldings and front grill where colour matched.

Pre-facelift FTL... Joke.

#114172 Welcome back, Sam! :woot:

I wanted to get ctr headlights but they're too expensive here. :cry: I'm gonna wet sand my headlights this weekend and might do a little project on them too, I will keep this updated..

The grill will be painted when the whole car gets repainted, which is prolly sometime next year. I'm just piecing this car together for now. :D

#114300 Thanks! When I got this car, the first thing I had planned was lowering it.. I hate driving 4x4 mode. :lol:

I will do my headlights tomorrow, hopefully it will turn out nicely..
I will keep you guys updated. :thumb:

#114446 So I went out today to do my little DIY for the headlights. Turned out nicely, however, I need to refinish my lenses because my headlights look like they have cataracts. :lol:

#114607 And so I finally did a lot of small stuff on my car today.. I refinished those headlights, installed my black driver side mirror (Because the housing is broken and the passenger side is black), replaced cluster bulbs with amber bulbs.. I was gonna paint my calipers and wax the car but I ran out of time, so it just has to wait 'til next weekend..

And btw, I'm a bit pissed off 'coz I found 2 new quarter-sized dents on my car.. :x

I will post pics of everything later..
