So what happens when your paycheck, bonus check, tax return, and one year cell phone refund check all get mailed to you within the same time period....well...I went on a big shoppin spree for my car!! altho my tax return wasnt that much cuz im still with my parents and paycheck wasnt that big cuz of my being part time at work and full time student, I only had a $1200 budget.....this is whats been already ordered and will arrive within the next 1-2 weeks....


I will be doing two DIYs....opening up n blacking out my headlights.....and doing a hyperblinker....

I was also gonna buy those JDM taillights....but after some thought, ive decided that i just dont like how those newer 03+ taillights look....instead, I think im just gonna stay with my stock ones that are on my 02....



205/40/16 Sumitomo HTR+ Tires

Here's a teaser pic.....this is not my car...this is Caquinde's car...he has the same color and 4dr as my vic....the only difference is that he's slammed on ebay coilovers minus the camber kit and those rims are 15" rotas....im getting 16"..

i think the tires are going ot be too small. not enough meat on them. i mean i run 225/40's on my 18's your running a 205/40/16. its going to be a narrow rubberband and your going to feel everylittle bump groove and crack in the road. you may want to think about changing the tire size to at least a 205/45 or a 215/45

Rep Power: 303

Yea the Mugen strut bar is just a "Mugen-style" strut bar..not the real thing....same with the grill....they were both off of ebay...

not bad...i think you got taken on the camber kit though...and for the sake of arguing, are these numbers with shipping included or not?

 
Rep Power: 256

yea, all those numbers are the item price and shipping combined...i kinda over budgeted but a few bucks over isnt bad...
