Powerdome installed
Just wanted to share a few pics of my finished project, LED's and Powerdome hood, I think this is my last modification I will do to my car.

The hood looks great! But I would seriously consider a drop - will give it that mean aggressive stance!

Thanks man!
This is maybe the only exterior modification you can make and still enjoy it from the inside, because now you see the powerdome at all times driving, it feels like driving a new car....

Looks awesome!!! i am thinking about the LED upgrade also... did you have them just installed and re-coded at the dealer or did you need to get new wire harness etc. also?
I'm thinking about picking up a used pair on ebay and just doing the install myself and have then dealer re-code the car so it can recognize them. but the sellers are not aware if i need any new harness or additional wiring for the retrofit. Any info you have will be helpful... |

The worst part of the story is that import duties here are 50%, so take the US price as a base price and add freight $3000 max to Costa Rica, from that add 50% in import duties, how much money they are making in one single car? And remember, they don't buy a car from a US dealer, they buy direct!
