looks good.... a set of nice aftermarket headlights and turn signals would looks awsome
those rims really look good on that car i never would have thought http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Nice work. Definitely a huge improvement all around, even with the wheels.

Re: (pappas64)

Love the wheels, love the duckbill, but those badgless grills always look so sloppy, not sharp like the stock ones. Looks good though.

same cap on my wheels fell off.

anyone have any? lol

 

[VIP VR6 Rabbit]

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.
Overall im happy with how it drives, not a big autocross or road racing fan and thats part of why I did the VR, to drag race.
The badgeless grills are a bit slopping, some day i'll try to get it more flush.
I was actually thinking of painting the chrome strips on the trim, but not sure how it will turn out.
The emblems on my wheel caps fell off, I've found them on ebay $25 shipped.
Heres a pic someone took this last summer at pacific waterland.. Before the face lift.
