after seeing joe tom's legacy pictures and how he did his grill i figured since it was nice out today i would try it on mine. i painted the grill, subaru badge, and the foglight surrounds all flat black. i think it came out pretty good, let me know what you think

dont mind the scuffs

next i wanna take the amber out of the headlights, possibly black out the head lights too, and maybe some new wheels

and i bought a 2x teleconverter today so i figured id try it out on the moon

I dig it, looks good with the black grille.

Drop the poor gel while you're at it.

i went and checked some out on lgt.com, i think they look pretty good. i did two quick rough photoshops to show the painted scoop and ps'd the wheels too and i think these will be the next two things that happen when im home from school again since i kinda liked how the car would look if they get done
cleared my corners in the first pic too

I think it looks a lot cleaner. And that shot of the moon is badass. How much did that lens run you?
