I might have to consider a lip for mine. That sets off the front nicely and isn't over the top.

My side emblems are not placed right. I asked my body shop to switch to back chrome for me when they were respraying my bumper cover a couple of years ago. They messed up the job and placed the emblem incorrectly. Its a classic example of the rule that if you want it done right do it yourself. I have a replacement and I need to remove the old and affix the new. I have the chart from the manual showing the proper placement. How hard is it to clean up the glue that remains when you remover the old emblems? Also, how did you get the correct blue tape placement? Am I correct it ends up parallel to the body line above the emblem?

Those are pretty cool. Not sure I like the piece behind the rear tires but this is going to look sharp as a whole on a yellow car.

Haters gonna hate. I think your car looks phenomenal. The attention to detail is second to done. In addition, I think several members have learned a lot, especially given the series of questions throughout the thread. You’ve certainly invested more into it than I would have. Looks great and keep up the stellar work!

Don't be driven away by a few haters. We should all be so lucky to have a car as clean and meticulously kept as yours. I would be grateful if you reconsidered and ignored the d..ks.

Clearly I missed a bunch, but please stay. Whatever they were hating on, they did it out of ignorance. Don't pay them no mind.

Deckoz clearly had the time and ability to make a cheap lip look amazing, and I think that sent a few people on their $750+ OEM AP1 lip or bust tirade flying off of their high horse. I shit you not some doofus was literally just putting arbitrary circles on pictures of the completed lip Deckoz posted and tried calling them waves or imperfections where there was literally none. There's some really scummy people on here who typically have nothing good to say....It's a select few individuals who's name keeps popping up in threads with nothing but snarky ass comments and throwing shade. Losers.
