Default New Look

here you guys...i have asked about the look of certain wheels...i finally got a new set.

here is the old look.


new look


in the past 6 months this is what i have done
new wheels
black interior swap....INCLUDING new black carpet...i had the gray one but bought new one from stockinteriors
OEM optional lip kit
Front and rear bumper resprayed, hood repainted.

I always thought i would be done but stuff keeps popping up and i keep buying it.

next up is probably a motor or turbo....

Your car is getting there. I would shave the side moldings and tack on some JDM Honda emblems.

Yeah, looks real nice man. Hard to go wrong with the Black/white combo. Car is really clean though....I'm likin it.

Need about 250whp all motor or 420whp FI, some good suspension and your golden. Just don't get crazy with power number infatuation. Build it RIGHT, make some respectable power numbers and keep it as reliable as possible.

thanks for the comments guys.

as for shaved moulding...i could have done it but i didn't. for some reason i like it but we'll see how it goes. i have my own opinion on how certain things look and what i like...so yea. NO red emblems for me. i should have shaved the front emblem as well but i didn't. o well. my rear emblem is shaved and no spoiler.

the stockinteriors.com carpet fits ok..i think if u take your time installing it, it can come out fitting really good...i did mines in about 4 hours and it came out pretty good.. not perfect but still good..a little more time spent cutting and matching everything up and it will come out good. feel is great...brand new black carpet FTW. car looks a world of a diff with black interior and black carpet.

i'll take pics of the interior for you guys...only thing i'm looking for is black leather rear seats to match the fronts OR USDM type R black front seats..right now i'm still running black leather GSR fronts, ITR rears.
