I like the front lip painted

Picture removed

Regarding the filter - Think it might be too much warm air - here remeber the engine sucks down the intake so you need to have a much bigger cold feed to compensate for lack of suck and p*** poor ram air effect

But I wasn't sure about the rear light masks - never seen them before

here are the links http://www.alfa145.com/upload/cm6.jpg for the lip

and this is for the k&n 57i induction kit

bstardchild: that black pipe there (pointing towards the filter) takes cold air from underneat the car. i had to mod the front grill, the one just above the lip to make it suck cold air.

here is a small picture to show you from where exactly.

i know it works because now it is quite a long time that i fitted it, and the place where the black pipe is point towards is filled with dirt, while the other side, it is completly new!! so i can be assured that it is sucking cold air :)

PS. if the links do not work for you, add a space at the end in the address bar and press enter, they should work now.

thank you for your comments

no i don't think so. I don't like lexus lights on white. i have already something on my back lights, look:

next on my wish list is a sound system. I already got a cd/mp3 stereo and a 375W amplifier. i just need a subwoofer (my wished one is an infinity kappa perfect 12.1) and a set of components. i think i will buy a set of focal polyglass. i am not going for an SPL sound system, i would like an SQ one. at the end of summer i should have collected enough money for everything. i also got a white dial kit, but not fixed in its place for now, which i will do after exams end, and then i will post pictures for you to see. i also have in mind to change all green light to blue inside. what do you think?

sorry i did not notice bstardchild posted the image already of the back of the car because the picture was not showing.

bstardchild, the reason for those masks is that i don't like lexus lights on white cars!

I don't like them either - I'm thinking Polo 16v rear lights (all red) or these
