Done, but still missing something...
Finally got my GT/CS valance and Roush grille put on today. The install was super easy, took 1 hour 45 minutes by myself. Did not require any help. I was worried about not having the Push Pin Removal Tool, and felt pretty stupid when I started working on it and the pins popped right out with a flathead screwdriver. If you do both mods, use the Roush Grill instructions until you get to the reinstall section, then do the valance. It was so easy, and I have to say it totally changes the looks of a car, especially in person. I don't think the pics quite do it justice.
Now if I can offload these PPNLA wheels and get something darker on there, I will be DONE with the exterior. They are just too shiny/whitish for me. I have a link in the for sale section if you're interested...

I went the "cheap way" with only springs + adj. panhard bar. No complaints so far
Personally, I love your stockers and I think they would go really nice with your car if painted flat black

These would cap it off nicely.

Nice job!
I just ordered the CS fascia yesterday.
I was on the fence, thinking I'd put it off for a bit, but AM hit me with their $15 off email yesterday, and I figured what the heck.
I'm too chicken to remove the front of my car, though.
I had it dropped shipped to a place that's doing some paintwork on my car next month.
I was going to do the Boss splitter, too, but I'll just try this for now, and see what I think.
I agree on the wheels.
I have the stock 18"s, and they need to go. Same reasons, too bright.
Originally I was thinking black Bullitts, but now I'm leaning to some take-off GT500 or Boss wheels.
That's going to have to wait for a while.
My mod wod is blown for quite a while now.

looks great man. Now just lower it and put the 19x10 version of your wheels on the rear and it would be sick. I love the OEM look, just crossing my fingers for a 19x10 version on the brembo wheels to come out.

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't shell out 300-600 dollars plus tires to gain an inch and a half of tread width, of the same type semi stock rim. That is craziness. Might as well get a full set of TSW's at that rate. Thinking these, they look awesome on a visualizer I saw the other day: http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-tir...ck%20Flat.html
Probly go 19x8.5 up front and 19x10 in back.
I thought about a grill pony, but decided i wanted it all blacked out completely. If I get bored of the look maybe I'll give it a shot.
Thanks for the feedback folks
