My 01 LX from start to now (Pictures!)

This is over about 4 years.
I wont start with the stock photos we know what that looks like

First mod (didnt last long)




Then after a couple months




Then Dropped it and got my rims






Then about 2 months ago i got in an accident that was not my fault





So after that I decided I can now make the car look how i have wanted to for awhile now.
So here is how my car sits today.
04-05 Rear
03 Hybrid Front
and OEM sides
all painted Graphite Metallic






The last couple things I need to put on are the stock headlights i just picked up and i'm waiting on the hybrid fogs should be here any day now.

Re: My 01 LX from start to now (Pictures!)

hey just curious, how hard is it to do the 04/05 tail conversion?
Did you just get tail lights and the bumper or did you have to get the trunk lid too?

Re: My 01 LX from start to now (Pictures!)

The bumper fits by itself and so do the actual tail lights. You dpnt need the bemper if all you want is the tail lights. there is a DIY somewhere on here for it just search.

sweet thanks. I probably should have just thought of looking for it in the first place. I always forget this forum is so much more advanced then the local one i've been on the last few years.
