    Stick on hood scoop from Autozone.
    Grille looks better, but I'm a fan of the badges. I would paint them black and put them back on. :D

    thanks guys, I really like it too. And I might do the bumper if it's not to hard. I was also thinking where I can get a toyota badge to put in the grill. Any suggestions?
