You either love em or you hate em. So I know there not everyones favorites. Im not 100 percent set on them either but they came with the car when I bought it so yeah. Anyways here it is im not done yet so its still in progress so let me know what you think about it so far. Thanx! Oh and the Type R sticker has been removed from the grill. lol.

what do you mean? (prolly a dumb question on my part) If you mean is it automatic then yes it is, because they didn't make the 6th gens (V6) in manual but the 4 bangers did come in manual.

yeah right now I have about 700 bucks but its going to lowering the car. The grill might look kinda odd to because the front bumper has a crack by it so there is some gap. The previous owner was in an accident. But as I said im not done yet so I will have a new front bumper sometime in summer.

The girlle is bad cuz i don't think it's flush with the lines of the car, and it's not molded so well. The least you can do is to color-match it. Also, is that a type R badge?

I actually like the rims.
Oh, I don't like the red in the engine bay only because it doesn't match anything. You don't have anything that's red on the car.

Seriously needs a drop to look badass.

EDIT: sorry, i just read that you removed the Type R badge.

you need to

-lower your car
-put back on stock tail lights
-maybe paint your grill, it looks out of place
-get different wheels, bronze/gold would look nice on white
-wingless looks good too sometimes
-OEM front lip if they have it...

Lowering is coming in spring
I have considerd putting on the stock ones
My wheels are staying
wing is staying because my personal opinion when its off seems like something is missing
and oem lip is def a possibility.

Thanx.

Deffinitely think it looks good, even the tail-lights that are on there. It's read with minor chrome, I can't wait for future updates.

Eh...looks like a monster truck.

I wouldn't be into modding my V6 auto 6th gen...those things break easily enough on their own...

You might not have gotten a good one...unless it's at 120k already.

I'm auto 4cyl and i'm on my 2nd tranny, and the problems are WORSE in the 6cyl
