Move your badgres down. Looks so much better. I have no idea why they placed them in the middle of the door in 05.

Took her on a mini photoshoot
I didn't have any good pics of the recent modifications I had done so I figured it was time to find a good spot for some photography. Reppin Arrival









I honestly like this picture just because it shows the wide spectrum of color

Thanks muchly haha. I'm about to drop it on coil overs and add 5mm spacers in the front to poke the front wheels out a little more flush. Excited for that.

Not looking for a major change. Just want the fronts flush with the fenders. I test fitted a set of 5mm last year that a friend lent me.

Any more and you would have to change the studs. It'll match the rear wheel stance which is mainly what I'm going for. Not looking for any sort of mad poke or anything lol.

Your wheels are the same specs as mine so you would need 10-15mm spacers with longer studs front and rear for poke
