lookin good... but i personally don't like the rims, as long as you like it then they are fine...

also, it would look much better if you lowered it, but if you have potholes or a steep driveway, i don't recommend it... otherwise, good job so far

chrome looks better on black cars, but they're still alright on your car. but if you do decide to go bigger, i'd go with the traditional silver .....but i really like the kit, and the spoiler is cool too. i know they're not anything "groundbreaking," but the kit and spoiler work well together. cool beans

The kit looks good. Are those 15s? Definately get some bigger, non-chrome rims.

The rims are 16". I would love to lower her, but I live in bumf*&k New Hampshire and the roads suck around here, also, this car is a daily driver, and unless I can find a winter beast, I'll be driving it during our harsh new england winters. Thanks to everyone for the comments. I love this car. When I bought it in 2001 it was my first brandy new car, and I had no intentions of modifing it. I bought it for it's great gas mileage and dependability. Then I met my neighbors who are in a car club and I met them and joined their club. I like to modify my car cause it's a great hobby. I love the Kaminari kit, it subtle not too flashy, and really makes the car shine. As far as chrome rimes, I am a motorcyclist by heart. I have a custom bike and have put lots of chrome into it, I guess that's where I get it from. If you don't like chrome, that's okay, wouldn't think any less of ya
As far as lowering goes, I have thought about Honda's FP package (factory performance) spring and strut combo, lowers about an inch, I think I could probably get away with it, if only the made a 50 series 17" tire. I have too many friends with bent rims from hitting pot holes with 40 series tires, there just doesn't seem to be enough cushion. Oh well, until the next mods......
