Thanks to this thread sir Viva, I had the courage to dismantle my audio panel...

And I copied the carbon fiber mod on the grey parts of the panel (got the idea from someone from FCP)...
IMHO, I loved how it looked, though some may find it 'ricey'... did I use the term right??? :D

Now to check on those wires....

Kung pwede sana post your pics under "Mods at iba pa" thread.

Don't take the "ricey" comments too seriously and don't take the "your great" seriously either.

Once you open your heart to all those cheers and applause, you open it also to those haters just waiting to shoot a flaming arrow right into into it.

The most important thing is you like it and we are thankful for you are sharing it with us. You are doing us a service by showing how such a mod would look and save us the trouble of trying it ourselves. "Taking a bullet" for a friend 'ika nga.

These are two different cases:

"Hey guys, here is what I did."

and

"Hey guys, what do you think about this."

In the second case, opinion is being sought and opinions will have some weight. In the first case, the post is merely to share.

Looking forward to see those pics!

Yup don't mind the "ricey" and "IMHO" replies, like you, nag she share lang sila nang opinion, kanya kanya namang taste eh, if you feel cool with your mod, then you will look cool also, and so it follows that your ride will look cool too. Nakakita ka na ba ng kotse ng mga mexicano? at mga rapper? over the top, pero kaya nilang dalin bumabagay din

Credits to Sir Kevo, the headlight assembly does have a way to be adjusted.

Na experience ko na rin yan one time. Try cleaning your wind shield and wiper. Malamang may malagkit na dumi.

yun din actually naisip ko nung first time. pero yung mga sumunod na instances, im sure malinis naman yung windshield and wiper. actually sa simula ok naman. pero pag tumagal, lalo na pagmalakas na yung ulan, bigla na lang nagkaganon. My friend who owns a ford focus told me na sakit daw ng ford yun kasi ganun din daw yung kanya.

I have been noticing that the plastic trims on the door frames are magnets to scuffing. The scuff plates we buy as accessories are nice looking but do not protect these vulnerable spots. I am using faux carbon fiber vinyl stickers to add some looks at the same time protect the trims.

You can see the scuffs in mine

These trims along with the door pillar trims come off easily. (Use some firm force with only your hands)
