God no, on the dumps.
Lose the hood, which will eliminate having to loose that striping.
Get some 17 or 18 inch 5 star rims (no cobra rims), and if it's not lowered already, lower it.
The pro stars are ok, but there just isn't a reason to drive around on them anymore.

On the hood, i agree with Manosozz. 1.5 inch is suttle, i know i have one, but i also like the stock hood, and i like the 2 a little.

Not on an LX. Like trav_19 said, LX's need something to detract from that gas tank.

A double stripe would have looked better (JMO) But I also like the one you have. Just lower the back. I like the stance of a high front end!

She weights in at just over 2800 pounds. I hoping to get her down to about 2750 with new RCI seats and the removal of all the heating system.

dump it, then sump the gas tank. I think the colorful AN fittings take away from just the tank, and make notches look killer. I think it looks sweet when you can see a sump with fittings (maybe im weird). I think it looks pretty awesome as it sits though.

I noticed something in the interior that I haven't seen very much. Manual windows and manual locks. I'm not trying to be silly, I just don't see that much in pictures people post. Nice ride, I'm sure whatever you do will be fine.
