Re: some new ride pics feb08

i really like your car a lot because you focus so much on subtle detail work to make it stand apart from everyone else. i especially love the projector fogs, they are a very nice mod. you should update with pics more often.

Re: some new ride pics feb08

heh yea, actually ive always wanted that evo style cf hood with all the vents in it. i dont like hoodpins but they have some pretty clean looking cf ones on ebay i would get. when i save some money thats on the future list. and actually i was thinking of having the hood painted silver, and then doing the vent meshes all black. idk, i wanna get something cause my stock hood has alot of hail dings in it.

Re: some new ride pics feb08

word i agree... the only thing I could suggest is a thinner tire wall.. it just looks so fat for my taste. but i bet that has something to do with a comfortable ride huh..

Re: some new ride pics feb08

I like the side markers, fogs, and the overall look. I would suggest balancing out the black some more on the car.
Suggestions:
1) Black Tint
2) Black Taillights
3) Black License Plate Covers/ Outlines
But again, it looks good overall, that would just tie it together better I think.

gearbox... I've known you on these forums as long as I've been here... and I still can't figure out why you never got 16's. Other than that... best clean sedan I've seen.

Re: some new ride pics feb08

lol. as for the rims and tires, the roads here are terrible and im scared to bend a rim. seriously its like an obstacle course where you have to steer around the holes. the big tires do make the ride much more comfortable too. and i chose 15 inch rims because of the weight (13.6lbs) and better acceleration. its mainly for performance and surprisingly i still have people on the street compliment them. and yes all windows are tinted, its just hard to tell from the angles. its 35% tint and on cloudy days it looks black. heres a more accurate pic

Re: some new ride pics feb08

if u ride rims, u gotta ride flats!
my ***** so skinny like its high off crack!

naw if u want the weight reduction good for you. the other day i found out my front left rim is now bent and it was just 1 of those days where i wanted to just sell my car. probably from a pot hole kuz im pretty sure i didnt hit a curb.
then dis morning i realized when i filled my tires up yesterday i forgot to put the caps back on! luckily i had 3 spares and i just stole one of my moms lol

Re: some new ride pics feb08

Looks good man. Here is what you need:
Hybrid trunk spoiler
Rear disc swap
And your car can go lower. Even if there's obstacles, im sure with those tires you won't have to worry!

Re: some new ride pics feb08

lol thanks. only thing that kept me from hybrid spoiler is its 20lbs! and needs holes drilled. so not to happy with that. esp since my exhaust is already 30lbs heavier than stock.
