Car looks good man, but that lighting is harsh, its hard to tell how nice your car really is with that orange/yellow parking garage light on it. As for the apc carbon fiber altezzas,

I don't think altezzas will look good with that style wheel. It would be like 2 totally different styling approaches clashing with each other. A battle between good and evil. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Looks very nice!

Leave your stock tail lights on. Much cleaner look that way.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

how big is the drop on your car? 1 1/2" or so? let me know cause that is exactly the way i want mine. the rear does look like it could use a little more drop, maybe.

Awsome car too! stick with stock tails.

Too many spokes on the rims. I think 8 is max. More than that should have an odd pattern like Konig Imagines. Just my opinion though.

redsoxryan: The drop is about a 2 finger gap.
I do agree with you guys that it should of be dropped a little more, maybe I could put some heavy things in the back? As for the number of spokes on the wheel, well I do think it is too many spokes myself now. It is a pain in the [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG] to clean the rims[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG] I think I'll save my money for something else besides cf altezzas like for a neuspeed strut bar.

I'll try to get better pictures soon.
