enhancing front end
well, this has been bugging me for some time now and i been thinking of how i can add somethign to my front to make it look better. i'm beggining to hate the way the Xenon front bumper looks on my car for some reason....... i been thinking it might be because its too high off the ground? its about a 6 inches off the ground..... i have some threads left on my TeinSS coilovers but i cant go lower cuz i already scrape my driveway pretty hard going in and out on an angle. it looks liek it smiling.... pissing me off. i ordered some eyelids that are on the way also for a meaner look
here is a pic. i was thinking of making my grills black and getting some black headlights? dunno.
a lot of peopel have good taste on this site so maybe you guys can throw me some ideas

in all honesty, i loved all of the xenon kit but the front. it just never looked right to me. i say black out the mesh of your upper grill and leave the lip silver. black out the headlights and maybe get a CF hood and paint the sides like mine

all the grills black would be nice. then maybe eyelids would look dope. and tryu to find some fogs that fit on the outer not the farthest out but just right next the middle!
a good set of yellow fogs can always improve the "girly" look you dont like.

you really need to add some black into your car. Def. black out the upper grill and leave the lip painted. blacking out your lights and putting the amber back in would help a little too. Since you have everything matched, everything blends together a little too much.

Put back the stock grill with the 'H' or the Kaminari without the 'H'. IMO too much mesh looks like a cheese grater. Black out the bottom mesh with a good quality paint that won't chip. Black out your headlights and put the amber piece back in 'JDM' style. Then an OEM style carbon fiber hood.
