    I just picked up my car from Progressive Autosports here in Houston. Some of the mods done:

    1) Vellano black face/chrome lip 3-piece wheels: 20 (rear) and 19 (front)
    2) X-OST exhaust
    3) CS Grille
    4) Tinted windows
    5) Smoked out lights

    Below are some pictures. I apologize for the poor quality. It was a little cloudy today. I was also too excited to pick up the car that I forgot my digital camera again. These were from my mobile phone; not bad for a mobile phone I guess.

    I'm done externally I think. I'm really happy with it. If I do anthing, I want to just improve the audio system without changing the factory unit (amp, sub, etc). I also want to get Fabspeed or Larini cats and maybe some carbon fiber engine components. Other than that, I think the 360 looks amazing as it is!

    If anything more externally, maybe smoke the front sidemarkers?

    Thanks! I wish I had picture-taking capabilities as you. It seems like when I take pictures and then crop it to fit the size requirements, the quality is compromised. Any advice would help so I can take better pictures?

    Thank you very much! I'm a tad busy packing for a trip this weekend so I can't go to indepth. I got your PM about point and shoot cameras. A great site to check out would be www.dpreview.com. I've only had good experience with Canon so I highly recommend Canon products. The quality is top notch and it is going to last a long time. This isn't exactly a camera you can put in your pocket but it is a point and shoot and pretty easy to use- http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canons3is/ Regarding the size requirements and the effect it has on quality....what program do you use? I use a program called PhotoBase 4.5 which you can probably download on www.download.com. I'd love to answer all your questions but it might take me a few days to reply.

    Best,
    Jason

    Also I noticed there is a mark on the grill that says Challenge Stradale. Did you buy the car with that on there and then take it off?

    I bought the grille from someone with a CS 360. Luckily, there were no large holes where the emblem was originally attached. It was taken off. Mine is not a CS version so I did not want that logo there. However, I was not able to clean it up yet since I just got it back, so that CS emblem highlight is still there. I need to clean and polish the grill.

    It looks great! I love the rims and the look with the smoked lights on the challenge grill! Very tastefully done imo.

    pretty smooth looking unit mate :cool:

    not huge on the smoked lights, IMO the red lights contrast nicely with a challenge grille...

    but other than that nice!
