My EZ Lip finally arrived today.
So I went outside and stuck it on straight away, I'm pretty pleased with the way it looks. It's much better than what I expected.

It arrived today! Doesn't look too bad. I think I stuck it on a little crooked but I'm pretty happy with it.

That looks awesome on the Foz. The black seems to look really good against the red.

I also wanna do that, it looks pretty great! possibly black for me or perhaps something to tie into the exterior colour with some dark red burgundy or something.
How much and where from mate?

Thanks mate. Black looks good too but I think it makes the interior too dark.
I bought it from Ben (93tzlegacy), I don't know if he has another one for sale.

My POS Chinese head unit finally died over the weekend so i replaced it with a Pioneer AVH-P4450BT and i absolutely love it.

A few weeks ago i also bought another rear garnish and tail light set which i decided to tint, I think it looks a whole lot better than the bright red.

You can polish the tint up to a full shine.

It looks 11ty times better than matt. ;)

What sort of polish should i use to do that?
I used clear coat over the top of the tint but it didn't make much of a difference.

Its paint so pretty much the normal process to polish paint.

You can hit it with 2000 wet and dry and then fine paste cutters, etc.

Ive done it twice on previous cars and achieved a full gloss so it looks more oem.

I am able to get my full licence next month so the time has come to decide wether I spend more money on this car to finish it off or sell it to buy a Forester XT or 2002+ WRX Hatch.

The main deciding factor is what I will get for my car. What would be a realistic price for my car? It has 101 000km's. The front and rear bars are going to be repaired and resprayed this week so the car is in pretty much perfect condition apart from a few stone chips on the out side and a few scratches on the inside of the tailgate.

Thanks
