How It Stands

White17 · 04-24-2008, 11:20 AM

This is my car and how it is currently lookin right now. Let me know what you guys think. Any ideas for future mods i should do would be great.

You didn't specify what theme you are going for here but assuming it is black and white I would say perhaps switch out your red badging to black, get those headlight housings painted black, add some foglights where the OE ones would go if there aren't any behind that mesh already, lower it, and switch out those chrome wheels for some black ones with a polished lip. Is that a scratch on the passenger side of the rear bumper cover? Get it fixed.

yea, someone hit and ran when i left it parked outside my work one day. It was pretty upsetting, i was waiting till the summer to get it fixed and i'm gonna add the logo insert in black to the bumper at the same time. Yea i'm goin for the black and white look.

clean it inside and out, then lower it

I'm ready to lower my car, but i've never had this done before, what are the best springs out there? and would winter driving be still ok? i've herd good things about progress and eibach, but i just don't want the install to be so difficult, like cutting the bump stop, then getting an alignment. and also, the rims and tires i have on now are 17x8 and 215/45/R17. So i don't want anything to rub. I would appreciate the help.

rims are ugly, tail lights are pretty ugly too. you should get a better grill or figure out how to make a nice one. you have nothing done in the engine bay except the bar, so i dont know why you showed a picture, its ok i guess but its lonely. and your spoiler is ugly
