i dunno what 2 do next....
my birthday is on wednesday the 27th..
and my parents are givin me $$200 to put towards whatever i want.. i have about 7 or 800 saved up.. so ill be playin with around 1g.. and its def. goin towards my car
i want rims, i want 2 lower my car, i want a body kit, and a carbon fiber hood... i.. so. what would you do if u were in my spot... i want them all equally... but the problem is
rims would look bad if it wasnt lowerd
bodykit would look bad with hubcaps
lowering would look alright with out rims,
carbonfiber hood would look wierd on a stock looking car..
so... they all are about the same price with exception of hood (c/f monster style)
rims - rota 17's
coilovers - Tein SS
body kit - WANT kaminari lip kit (lot of money) or the r33 or r34 kit...
so.. comments are welcome!
thnx

tein ss will ruin your suspension warranty too.
I don't understand. If you are gonna ruin a warranty, might as well make it your engine warranty. Our engines are cheaper than our suspensions.

yes tein has a warranty, but on their parts only. If you drop your car, give it about a year or less and your shocks will be blown. If you do drop i would look into upgrading my shocks. Hell save a little more and get air bags. Then you really won't have to worry. Rase it to normal height when cruising and slam that mother when parking. Problem solved.

im thinking about just trading her in for an SI or an RSX-s... probably the SI because its more afordable... i really like the SI and i really want a manual... only thing is i love how my 01coupe looks.... too bad they dont make the SI in the coupe body style.. ::drools::
fist get rims, than kits, cause u don't know how low it gona be after u got ur kit on. do it my style . expensive first cheap later. so i got rims first , altezza tail and projector front, than kits and if the kit didn't lowering it enought than lower it.
