BTW Daedalus customs is about 5 minutes outside of Germantown. If you want stuff done, their prices are super competitive.

When I had my oil change done at the dealership (before I knew how to do it myself) I brought my own oil and they only charged me like $20 for labor and the oil filter.

Yes this shop seems like they know their stuff. REALLY good price and they're throwing in halos and chrome blinker bulbs for super cheap. On top of that, they're going to do it all in about a day, clean up my sealant mess and moisture test the lights before reinstalling.

They're also going to break down the remaining parts for easy sale after they're done.

That's awesome dude! Can't wait to see them when it's done.

edit.....I highly recommend to change your transmission fluid if you can. I can feel the gears so much better than it was.

I changed both of those at like 1000 miles.:tup:

Silver lip on the rims or no?

Not sure about that. You have everything else on the car blacked out so the silver wouldn't really go with anything. Maybe you could get someone to do a photoshop for you? That's how I decided what color to paint my front lip.

Thats a good idea mr. blades.

Well the lugs are going to remain silver and I could also leave the center caps silver to go with the lip. Powdering the lugs isn't a good idea anyway plus the rotors are still going to be silver so...

I don't know anyone who's good with photoshop
