The body kit/lowering springs looks great! but those wheels aren't exactly my style....anyway what do you think of the grille fitment? the larger opening doesn't look very flush from the pics

It does look like it is out too far. I'm contemplating getting the black one for my Whiteout....

Of the things I did, I am least happy about the wheels. That isn't to say I don't like them, just not what I pictured when I saw them on TireRack. Some day in the future, I will probably get 18"s and new rubber. I went with 17"s to save some cash upfront.

The grill looks good in person. Fits very well. I think it might look a little odd due to where the body and the grill meet.

Yes, I like black and red lol, and yes i did the pin striping myself on the wheels. The red lights are not illegal in the states, people are misinformed about the legality of lights. You can check with your department of safety or even look online for your states vehicle light operations laws. The law states "No non-emergency vehicles shall install any blue, white and or red "flashing" lights. So you can put red or blue lights on your vehicle they just cannot pulse, strobe, or flash in anyway, like changing a turn signal, as long as the lights are in a constant solid state, your fine. Most all officers know this except for the ones who do not like the lights and disagree with the law allowing you to use them. There are a few of them unfortunately, I know because I used to be an officer. Not to mention I live in Nashville and see 50 cops a day and have not had a single problem yet, and those lights are on day and night.

And I keep a print out of the light codes, laws, and regulations in my dash just in case that one power happy fool tries to pull me over. They do have citations for it, but, the citation is for "unauthorized use of red lights" or blue as well. But, do not let a cop fool you, there is a definition behind that "unauthorized use", being, flashing, pulsing, or strobe. Read up on this in your state and know your laws and do what you please to your cars!

Yeah most states are fine there were a few states like Michigan that are really strict about lights but for the most part if your not trying to imitate an emergency vehicle you'll be fine. In Michigan it was no blue or red forward facing lights.
