    Ac Schnitzer what?

    So I got tired of my iS lip setup and decided it was time for something else. One of my local friends had a legit ACS front apron so I decided it was a good time to pick it up. Also have a source on the matching rear apron. Just need to find some matching skirts and I'm set.

    Sorry for the crappy nighttime pics but I couldn't wait to snap some shots of it.



    Don't worry these will be going in as well soon.



    Haven't decided whether I want to lamin-x these yellow or leave them as is with some clear lamin-x. Currently have lamin-x on my smoked high beams so I thought matching fogs would flow well.

    Comments, questions, concerns....always appreciated.

      Oh don't worry, there will be. I literally put it on less than an hour ago in my appt complex parking lot. I haven't even seen it in the daytime yet.

          I actually saw a for sale ad a couple months ago from one of our members TD325ic and pm'd him if he had any still for sale. He pm'd a few weeks later letting me know that he had recently refurbished a set. I got them for what I believe to be a ridiculously awesome deal since they are as good as new.

          I know he occasionally refurb's sets, so if you see any that he is selling, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase them in a heartbeat. I can't wait to get them installed with another 3000k hid kit. I've been wanting fogs for so long since I've been stuck with my fog blanks for so long.

              Thanks, I was surprised how easy it was to put on. I just need a couple of screws to finish up the install. Currently it's being held on by pressure.

                  awesome, I bought an AC schnitzer rear spoiler a week ago. Did you get the front spoiler in red or did you get it painted to match?

                    It was previously zinno, and then repainted bronzit. My friend I bought it from is a fairly competent painter, so I had him respray it to match. Point of interest though, he painted it using a rattle can of my color paint. I couldn't believe how good he got it to come out. He also put a nice layer of clear on it, so hopefully that will help protect it a little bit from rock chips.

                            I'm probably going to keep the highs as is. I've always loved the smoked highs with the lamin-x yellow film. But I'm starting to think that just going with clear lamin-x for the fogs is going to be my best bet. They're going to get a 3k hid kit anyways, so that will solve the yellow problem.
