I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I only saw one car with painted housings, but it was an EG, and I didn't like it at all.

I was considering it in the begining. But since there such a rare item, and an expensive one at that, I decided to keep them as is, just incase I ever have to sell them. Not to mention the grey really grew on me quite fast.

Could always flat black em.

Match the surround around your rear fog light.

But good choice on getting two sets of the surrounds.
