Pics of my 01 DX coupe

Hey everyone, Finally gettign around to posting pics up, here smy car. Ive had it for about 2-3 weeks now, bought it as a total, didnt get any before pics, but, front left was pushed in, as was the rear. Got it all pulled and sprayed it white, which lated literally 2 days. Got bored, pulled th elights apart and sprayed them black, ordered a ebay Si grill, HID's, side markers, and dropzone struts/shocks. Also put on a knockoff Mugen lip that was on my gf's car. These pics are 20 minetes after I lowered it, so, the springs havent settled in yet. I know I need rims! Slips ordered last night with Rays lugs. Should be here soon, tell me what ya think.

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

Its dropped, just have to let the springs settle in, shoudl be a 2" if it doesnt go down far enough, then, Im just going to go with GC sleeves. I just love how cheap it is to build these cars lol.

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

hum.... ur the one with the other thread rite?

usually, springs willl only settle bout .5" max. usually no more.

i think the 2nd pix make the drop a little mroe obvious...

how much did u get them for (if you dont mind me asking)

(i saw you said you got springs AND struts)

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

Springs were cheap, 75-80 shipped, with alifetime warrenty, they did drop it 1 1/4 inches, so, I wanna see it drop a bit more though, keep in mind I only have 14's on it lol. Im goign to be bolting on some 15's with 195 50 15 tires, which are a little bigger.

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

are you sure its suppose to be 2" drop? I'm on a set of H&R Sport springs, which are 1.3" and after settled down its about 1.5-1.6" and its lower then what you have in the pic.

btw, love the white on black look, sweet combo, and very clean car!

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

Heres a few pics of the car I took today, Quality isnt the best, but, as you can see, took the advan decals off of it for now, also the car sits much lower! Ordered a Fugita Enginering Intake for it as well. Got my WS2 muffler, just need time to put it all together. Hows it looking?

Also, anybody have pics of a mugen lip painted on a white car? May do mine, but, dont know what it would look like.

Re: Pics of my 01 DX coupe

Personally, I like those Advan stickers. BUT I think you need to have Advan tires on there to justify them, else you will get justly flamed.
