New shots of the i30

Just shot some pics after washing her, doesn't have on the roof rack right now. Newest "mod" is the black painted grille. I have Megan Coilovers on the way. Body isnt 100% perfect, but i am working on getting some paint work done now, mostly fix one rust spot, fix the passenger side front door and some scratches.

Mine is all nicked up from road debris etc. Painted it over with a glossy black. Was fine for a little over a month. Plastidipped right over the paint/nicks/chips with no prepping and it came out pretty good. Itll do for now until I get a cefiro grille....if I do even get one. I actually like my grille right now.

Try plastidipping yours. I think itll match the wheels slightly better.

Plasti dip comes either in brush on form or spray. Its basically a rubber coating kinda like whatd youd see on the handles of some tools. Spray it on.....if you dont like it, peel it right off. Yet its durable. They have more colors available if you order it online. Or you can get black and clear from stores like home depot, osh, lowes, etc.

Not bad, looks better with out the bike rack. I personally think the wheels are too sports for the car, bit looks good though...
