Your car looks like a snow plow with that lip and no side skirts or rear lip
Also your hood alignment is whack and the driver side door looks like a different shade of silver than the rest of the car. Was it in an accident or something?

And tell your friend not to use "tuner" lugs w/ OEM wheels.

Kids these days. Sheesh.

pretty much took the words out my mouth. lol.

the ep3 is nice...just needs the rest of the lip kit.

the rsx needs to put the oem lugs back on and its dying for a lip kit. other than that....good start!

Cars look decent though

i'll be nice and explain it to you.

Take the tip of an OEM lug nut and a tuner lug nut and compare it to the hole in the wheel. You will see the contacts between the OEM lug nut and the OEM wheel to be snug and there is 100% contact. However, when you lower the contact with a tuner lug nut, then the contact isn't completely there. It's kind of like using different types of nails. Different ones will hold things in better. For example:





The bottom one would hold something in much better than the nail on top.

sigh, why did i even bother?

i try and be nice and explain to these morons, but they're too ignorant to listen.

since all they care about is comments regarding their cars, then their cars look like typical DC5's and EP3's, but the ep3 came out uglier than when it started as a brand new car. however, whoever was taking the pictures is absolutely terrible.

your focal point is your car, but you focus on a rusted pipe. same goes for the picture of the rocks.

then, there is the picture of the front of the ep3 and back of the dc5, but there is absolutely nothing in the middle of the picture. if you were trying to take a picture of nothing, then you succeeded.

there is the picture of the ep3 where it's supposed to be the main subject and you have it covered by the green pipe.

well im sorry we all arent perfect like you and dont have money to make a car look 100% perfect sorry that the camera is new and that we were trying to figure out how to use it. im sorry you feel that way about my friends car. im also sorry that you have to come on the internet and judge other peoples cars when they are just trying to post some nice pictures. so how about you leave us alone we just wanted to "show-off" what college kids can afford.

if you dont wanna be positive why talk?

OK guys relax... no need to get excited!

#1. A beer to you guys who took the time to explain why not to use aftermarket lugs on OEM wheels! You guys will be enjoying that cold when you see the pictures of the DC5 loosing a wheel lol...

#2. Nice start guys... pics could use a little work but hey I am ain't a pro neither!

#3. I know its your car and you'll do what you want but no need to get so defensive when ppl are giving you advice... certainly when it concerns your safety!

Apart from that good work and keep the pics coming... just next time put them in the picture thread please!

Thanks

Dave
