I spent a few hours cleaning and detailing today so I could get some pics for you guys. The car looks SO much better with matching bumpers, I cannot even believe it. Enjoy!

Looks a lot better. Now take off those tires, lower it more, and paint the wheels flat black and you will be golden.

Yep, that's correct. I will be going down to 205/50's soon so I can lower the car more and not have rubbing issues.

How could I take pictures? It will be raining all over the camera!

Yes it is. I had those tires up front, and had an alignment issue, thus wore the crap out of the outside of that one tire. The alignment is fixed now, and I rotated the tires to the rear. I still need new tires soon though. :cry:

Thanks guys. 8)

Probably either Falken Azenis RT615's or the new Kumho Exsta XS, I hear great things about either. Hankook Ventus RS2's are also fantastic tires, but a little bit more pricey.
