I would totally buy your car but i despise that color. lol. hopefully you went back to the stock tails without the tint cause i never cared for the tinted tails on yours. but its your car do what you want but the drop looks good.

I haven't cleaned up my spray job or the tires yet, so they just look very weird.
I was so excited, I had to post them somewhere...

lol, the color has definitely had to grow on me, but now I love it. The tail lights are stock now, just regular red ones. The GSP and reynolds po-po told me to change them, lol

It's not done right because the overspray comes off when I clean the wheels?

i just did the old flash card trick and never got any on the tires, but yea if you spend your time doing it it can come out alot better. plus i had the wheels off the car for a while so had plenty of time to do it, im assuming you were the one at silver dollar a couple fridays ago.

Much better. You thought I was just being mean before but your taste has matured in one day (even if a Po-Pohad to tell you to change the lights) when the paint comes off the rubber fully it'll look great.

Yeah, i think it looks pretty good. Now all you need are some non-oem wheels to complete it!:cheers:

06-08-2008, 12:05 PM
Before that I'd have to get a camber kit so it wouldn't be eating expensive low pro tires, and I gotta save money for the camber kit first. :ninja:

I say you should strip the paint off of those rims. Look much better stock, or polished.
Catnip
06-08-2008, 04:18 PM
I had them silver for a long time and didn't much care for it, and if I can get a set of polished GST rims for a decent price, I will.

the drop is nice, but the wheels look like crap. have you never heard of at least masking tape?
and as far as getting camber plates, i wouldnt really worry about it. i run 2* all the way around on mine and its fine. when you get your next alignment, which i suggest you do soon since you just lowered it, have them toe in your wheels like .2-.5* and it will be fine.

I appreciate all the wheel comments, but they look better in real life than in the pictures and I've gotten compliments on them riding around town today.
But thanks for the advice on the suspension!

its a nice drop but for some reason theres alot of gap between the tire and the wheel well, id up the rimmage and tire size
