I could use some input

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 03:22 PM

So I put some ghetto pin stripe on my bumpers/trim to imitate this look below. I'm undecided on whether I like it or not, you guys let me know some input.

Model-

Mine-

I also replaced my headlights with some new ones while I was at it, here are some shots. I'm currently looking for amber corner lights.

Thanks for checking it out guys, hopefully I will be dropped in about two weeks.

it looks good i would get rhid of the other pinstripe tho that goes on the hood and the top of the doors or what not.

**Captain-Obvious™** · 03-05-2008, 03:55 PM

i don't know it looks weird, but maybe that's because yoou don't have all the other stuff yet..headlights look good though

**mushroom_toy** · 03-05-2008, 03:57 PM

I think it looks good, and it will look better with a lowering. But yeah remove the other pinstripe....the black one looks funky lol.

Oh yeah if you need any parts there is a pretty much all there 2wd wagovan at the Pullapart in Norcross. Just saw it yesterday.

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 04:00 PM

I'm getting to that before I take it to the car wash tonight!

Also, if I got cheapo coilovers I could probably lower it this weekend, otherwise it will be about two to three weeks before I'd get my GC coilover kit and another two weeks before I'd get my Koni shocks. So now my delima is whether or not to go cheapo since I'm not looking for anything amazing to ride on.

Send Cactus a message, he has some ebay coilover sleeves hed probably let go pretty cheap, as i think he was trying to sell em.

**The BUCKY** · 03-05-2008, 04:03 PM

go cheap. all the sleeve kits are pretty much the same IMO

I found an ebay set of sleeves and springs for $80 new from someone locally though...so I don't know if it would get much better than that. lol.

IM guessing cactus probably wants 25-40 bucks for his but dont quote me on it, youd have to ask him.

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 04:04 PM

Damn, I'll PM him. Thanks man!

**mushroom_toy** · 03-05-2008, 04:05 PM

No prob. You should definitely go to pullapart, though like I said if you need bumpers, theres some nice ones on a wago there.

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 04:07 PM

Already been out there and got some parts. I plan on getting different bumpers for it eventually, but first is cheap inexpensive cosmetics, next is suspension/wheels, then swap. Exterior ''mods'' are last.

**mushroom_toy** · 03-05-2008, 04:08 PM

Alright well if ya ever want those wheels let me know I need to get rid of em pretty soon since I cant use em anymore.

**BKgen®** · 03-05-2008, 04:14 PM

i think it looks great dude.

p.s. - get rims!

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 04:35 PM

Nobody can hate on my ralley wheels.............

...............

**J-ROCK** · 03-05-2008, 06:47 PM

looks good!

**01SpectraGSX** · 03-05-2008, 06:58 PM

I like the red stripe. once you get rid of the black ones it ll look even better.

**BKgen®** · 03-05-2008, 07:51 PM

lol i'm not hating. some work equips or sportmax's would really set it off though

**TicketRedBB6** · 03-05-2008, 08:00 PM

I think it looks good on the first pic. It fits well with the other mods. It looks a little out of place on your car as is sits now IMO. But for a cheap mod, i'd go ahead and do it and after you do more to the car i think itll look good.

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 08:34 PM

Thanks, I did the side trim on both sides and the front and rear bumper. I wouldn't do anymore stripping. Luckily I can peel it off.

**Papa_Smurf** · 03-05-2008, 11:01 PM

looks pretty good...deff. needs a drop though, lol.

**Revmaynard** · 03-05-2008, 11:56 PM

Yep. I'll get there around 8:20-9:00.

**SiLkY_JohnSon** · 03-06-2008, 12:05 AM

**WHT_EP3** · 03-06-2008, 12:07 AM

You don't want cheap suspension, its one of the most important aspects of a car. Wait and get a nice set of coilovers and you will be much happier. GL with the car man

**Kevykev** · 03-06-2008, 10:51 AM

i don't digg it!

**DieselNuts** · 03-06-2008, 11:08 AM

no sir, i dont like it

**WannabeSpecV** · 03-06-2008, 11:12 AM

i think it looks alright, it will look better with the other mods (wheels etc) tho

I disagree. Anyway though he said he would be riding on them till he got another setup.

**Civictyper95** · 03-06-2008, 02:48 PM

ARMOR ALL FTW!

**Revmaynard** · 03-06-2008, 03:03 PM

Here ya go, I might be able to get these wheels for a steal. All of 37k original miles on the original tires. Friend took them off of his 2001 teg when he got it and stored these at his parents house.

What do you guys think? 13 to a 15? Lol.

**scrxils** · 03-06-2008, 04:53 PM

**Got Milk?** · 03-07-2008, 09:48 PM

**bRiAnMcIvIcS** · 03-08-2008, 12:03 PM

Not bad.

**greasemunkey** · 03-08-2008, 12:48 PM

**Revmaynard** · 03-08-2008, 01:00 PM

First I'm just going to drop it then throw the LS' I bought on it. Next is performance. Then cosmetics. Later I might buy a nicer set of wheels, but for what I got the LS' for it's worth it.

**Halfwit** · 03-08-2008, 01:06 PM
