Thanks!
grill looks great, i'd find someone that wants to trade their base (black housing) headlights for your chrome sport ones
and this woulda been cool on the roof IMO

I've thought about swapping out the lights, might do it later down the line.

I'm ok with the current chrome since it's not something that bothers me.

I have 2 stickers on my car, that's all I plan on having going forward

Finally got a chance to get the photos that I took earlier in the week edited, here are some better pics of my recent additions

Complete with all of my new additions, my Mugen grille, Mugen mirror cover, EZ-Lip, and gloss black vinyl roof


Closeup of the Mugen grille


Rear shot with my LED rear taillights and also another view of my gloss black roof from the rear


Last but not least, after almost a year my SSR Type-F's are still looking nearly brand new!

Didn't get a chance to install the Clazzios since it was raining most of the day but took a little bit of time to clean my headlights on both my cars since they were looking hazy



Panda


Z


Used my Porter Cable, 3" polishing pad, and Chemical Guys Cut 1.0


Finished it off with the Chemical Guys sealant


Z headlights looks shiny again


Panda too!

Finally got a chance to work on the Panda last two days and put in some work

First up I removed the rear bumper and painted the rear diffuser section with black Plasti-dip and followed it up with their Glossifier which acts like a clear coat and makes the surface look like gloss black paint instead of a flat black Plasti-dip

Stock bumper removed



Glossifier applied and now it has the shiny appearance



Installed pics after it dried

Second thing I did was finally install my leather Clazzios

Front



Rear



Closeup of the perforated leather centers



Clazzio tag



Initial impression: seats are night and day in terms of comfort. Stock seats felt like the material was too thin and the cloth felt cheap, these really give the car a more luxury feel and have a factory/OEM like appearance to me. Definitely worth the investment!
