What do you think of my car?
I took some pics of my car today, it was pretty nice out. I wanted to hear some feedback from you guys. I know you can be brutal, and I'm ready for it.
My mods:
Chikara Headers
High Flow Cat
Airmass Cat-back exhaust
Short Ram intake (hole drilled in fro o2 sensor, from my 93)
10.3 mm OBX Spark Wires
Blue Distributor Cap
Wheels, yeah they're 14's
eventually I'll get 16's
TYC Tail lights
So what should I do next? (With a small budget) I wish I could do an engine swap, or turbo, but the funds are just not there.
I have my front bumper sitting in my living. (waiting for better consistent weather to have it painted)
I want to get drilled/slotted rotors, new pads, paint my calipers blue, the wheel center caps (the pink looks gay), and my rear drums (yeah an ex with drums? how hard is the disc swap?)
Sideskirts
Rear Lip
Projector Headlights
Strut bars (blue, i want to keep a white/blue scheme)
I have a blue cold air intake on the way, I had to return it, they sent me two of the same pipes.
Anywho, lemme know, thanks.

Bravery you display (ala Yoda). Prepare for the super Honda drivers to disect your car. If you don't have money don't fret about modifying. Do what you like, and don't be discouraged by the "hardcore" people on this board.
Anyway, if you want to be super zeal good for you. Cool car...

Man get ready for a flamin. The car is an SUV you need to lower it first of all. it's pretty clean but you need to take off those ALCHEEZA'S. Well I guess to each their own right?
Oh just a friendly reminder...Your car has a header not header"s"

I'm sure I'm not alone when I say you're tail lights and aftermarket front bumper are hideous. But if that's the way you like it, then that's the way you should keep it. But say you do your swap or bolt on a turbo, it'll be that much funnier when you smoke, say some hardcore jdm fanatic who thought your car was all rice; letting him get a good view of those altezzas

I'm sure you love your car, and if you're happy with it, great.
Lower it. Do that next. Do not put that bumper on without having the car lowered, it will look ridiculous.

Re: What do you think of my car? (rossockr)
I like the car.
I like stock taillights much better.
I like the OEM front bumper better thats on it now.
I would sell the aftermarket taillights and aftermarket front bumper and invest in some suspension.

Looks like you're taking care of it, keeping it clean, but I have to agree, those taillights make any car look bad in the rear.

You should put the stock taillights back on or get the 99-00 taillights. You should lower the car before you put that bumper on. It will look horrible with that thing on there with the 14's and not lowered. Also no need to go and paint the rear drums blue.

Get a milder front bumber or kit, and some suspension and you'll be set. I have gotten over the altezza light deal. I just ignore them now, to some people they look sick, to others well we already know how they feel.
