My car had fog lights in place of turn signals when I got her. I couldn't find oem replacements and so I just put on these ebay KE/TE clear turn signals today. I need new front bumper.

Although I got a new JDM Zenki front bumper, I'm tired of the Zenki look for now....
So I decided to do jdm kouki for awhile since I got the parts for it.
Finished installing the ignition switch (wired correctly for jdm kouki bumper lights, courtesy of Rongfk)
Prepping the AE86 for a Kouki transformation.
Inventoried all of my kouki parts (kouki smoked corners, kouki eyelids, front & rear brackets not shown)
OEM Sideskirts is an extra set I have. There's already a set installed on my AE86.

Selling my extra set of ae86 oem sskirts w/end caps has never crossed my mind.
God willing, it's for my second hatch.
But then again, money talks & bull$hit walks.
Everything has a price.

I drilled the bottom row holes for the JDM Kouki Grille, as opposed to shaving the bottom tabs off.

It didn't happen today but the thing I keep getting the most questions about the last couple days was cutting my front end off. Lol

Long story but it's all in my build log.
