1st Mod plus part #

[nks_bb]

Finally got a chance to install my first mod that's been sitting in the garage since I got the car 2 months ago. Nothing major but definitely changes the look.



If you can't tell it's painted grille.

I did run into one problem. Seems one of the clips that attach the screw into the bumper and car itself is loose and will not catch the screw. So right now the bumper is missing a screw.



Here's a pic of the clip... Anyone know where I can get this?



Anyway... Said this would be my only mod, but painted iND reflectors will be ordered and M performance exhaust for my birthday. Hahaha

Nice job! Thanks for posting. I haven't done anything to mine yet and I need a nudge...

if i remember correctly, take the metal clip off and bend it so the nut side is against the plastic again. Shouldn't need to replace anything. The clip is just pushed open basically.

Do it!!! But be warned. People in these forums are right. I went from a $100 cosmetic mod and now I'm researching which exhaust to go with and I'm suddenly reading about ESS superchargers?!?!?

My friend, you just opened the door. For me, it started off with the LUX V3 AE's.....and it just went downhill from there. My list of mods is growing...

Looks good.


Chrome grills are for the birds.

Thanks... I can't seem to stop thinking of what I want to do next.

Here's what I have in my list.

iND painted reflectors
Angel eyes
M Performance exhaust
Front splitter or lip
Side markers? (Does anyone have a pick of a JZB with black side markers)
Considering rims as well if I get tired of the 'OEM' ZCP look.

Jeez, when I bought this car it was only supposed to be painted grills and painted reflectors. My list just grew 'like that'.

Now I'm also considering a winter beater.

Get the iPE exhaust.

What's that?

[Kong Sheng Han]

It's a valvetronic exhaust. With the press of a button, you can make the exhaust quiet or loud. Google "Innotech iPE M3"

Edit: It does cost a good amount of money though.

Here's one video of the exhaust system:
