Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Hey guys, so i've decided to finally show you my car.

When I bought the car it was bone stock. I got it at 47k kms for about $10k back in May of 2010. Ever since then i've slowly been adding things to the car. Well here is the stuff I have done so far:

Morimoto Mini's Retrofits with 5000k bulbs
17 inch rims
Tokico Blues shocks with Eibach Sportline springs
Pioneer double din headunit
Pioneer subwoofer
Alpine amp
Pdm front lip (thanks to Muirsy)
RS type A side skirts
30% formula one tint
changed dome lights and license plate lights with led's

Pics:

Pictures of my retrofit can be seen here:

Future mods I want to do:

debadge the back
maybe more...

Well that's my car, comments, suggestions and criticism are welcome!

mmmm looks good. Nice clean sedan! I dig the retro and lip kit especially. I've got the morimoto mini retrofit as well and I love it.

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Yellow fogs.
Something about yellow fogs on a super black car looks sexy

Wax up your rims, and get some tire shine son

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Yeah, yellow just pops on black.
Clears just look like regular lights.

Blacked out housing = big no no

Re: Enigmatic jc's 05 sedan

Depends on the outer size of the bushings whether you'll need different brackets. In some cases, the almost line up perfectly on both cars.

And ES bushings are good. It's the go-to brand for performance bushings in our cars, so no worries there.

The RSX sway bar is the best bang for your buck in an EM2, so I say go for it!
I have the 21 mm and I absolutely love it!

Sounds like a good deal, I'd snag it.

You should be able to use your stock brackets.
