Here is how I did the Skid Plate...
Skid Plate
The lights were made by removing the headlights from a second light kit and splicing them in with the headlights in the car. (Credit goes to duey for doing this first to make double headlights for his RSX).

This may have rally implications.

This combined probubly with the stock bearings (to save the speed bearings from off-roading) and a heightened suspension.

Good work guy.
