I washed and waxed (Meguiar's Gold Class) her last week. These are my new rims. 15" American Racing AR-23's. The clear corner's (with amber bulbs painted silver) and the speed grille, moded intake are just the latest mods. The lighting wasnt the best, the rims look awesome in the sun, very shiney! Let me know what you think.

I dont see the speed grille

I took this with the sun facing the car...helped a lot!
Also, i just put some Silverstar bulbs in last night. Pretty nice. Better than the other super white bulbs i had in there.

Lower it, raise it...i am thinking about lowering, but i dont know much about what it would take and how much. I dont want to lower it because i dont use it for offroading, and dont intend to.

Where did you get the speed grille?
 






i used 2 rain gutter guards at Lowe's and pieced them together with zip ties (hidden behind the grille). it takes some cutting and some forming, but it fits great. cost me like $3 total.
 












lol.. thats a good question. Dont those cover up the little lever.
 






You might be able to take a pen and stick it through there. I have the street scene grille and theres just enough room to stick a pen through there on my 96
 












yeah, i have to use a small screwdriver which i keep in the car. o well, its worth it.
 






i've always wondered how you guys open your hoods w/ speed grills.

i know now.

Do you all do that?
 






i have a billit grill and didnt install the extension bracket...i just slip my finger through the bars and open it that way
 












thanks for the great idea i did it to my x and i looks great!!!!!!!!
 






I use chop sticks to open mine!
