That's cool and all bro, but this needs to be in the Appearance/Cosmetic forum.

Dude.......before any mod's go on fix that BUMPER GAP you got there, looks like crap.

Anywho if your planning on going turbo on it shortly don't bother getting intake header and all that **** cuz in the end they are coming off when the turbo goes on.

Sorry to be an *** but it seems you have no idea what you are talking about cuz first you say you gonna boost and put bolt on's.......??????

Do what you like bro w/ the color you want or the fenders. Personally, it's not my cup of tea, nor is it most of the people's on here...but in the end, its your car.

However, we can save you the trouble of telling you not to get bolt-ons if you are going for turbo. Although I would highly recommend you do more research since you didn't even know that simple fact.

yeah my bad about posting in here. i wasnt aware of the appearance thread. lol no te gusta the z3's huh? someone recked into my driverside fender and i couldnt fix it so i bought the z3's for the same price as one OEM fender. but when i look at it i want to throw on some OEM fenders with side markers. (i think). as for bolt-ons...the turbo probably wont happen for months and months. so i was just going with bolt-ons for the time being. ill post some new pics as soon as i get something done. yeah that bumper gap is nasty aftermarket FTW ( a sense of dry sarcasm)

I would honestly just save up your money until you're ready for turbo. Basic bolt-ons will give you very minimal whp gains, especially on the D16z6.

If however, you have this incredible urge to spend money on parts (which we are all guilty of), I would work on your suspension, wheels, and then extra appearance/cosmetic work. Do research and find what suspension will best fit your needs/goals...don't just throw on the first set of springs you come across online

Good choice on suspension

I would post up a thread in the WTB Forum (Under Classifieds) and your luck may be better. Or, just search throughout the FS forum.
