Default my EK...

hey guys i havnt posted my car on here before but i just got my new wheels on so i thought i would. i just turned 18 and i have had this car for just over a year and a half. i bought it stock. but i could never leave a car like that so enjoy.

right now my list of things to do is paint, swap, and suspension. right now its on tein s-tecs. but for suspension i have hks coilovers lined up and for the swap i have a ls bottom end/b16 top end ls/vtec motor to drop in. then ofcoarse the list goes on but priorities first.







all comments welcome.

Get it painted and it will look decent. the wheels are a bit much for me.

Looks like it's got potential. Drop it down a little, paint, and change wheel color (unless it will flow with your plans for paint) and you'd have a clean hatch IMO.

With a drop i don't think it would look bad at all with the mismatched colours.
Props dude.

ive never been a fan of that lip, but it needs to be lowered more and the color of the wheels kill it (even tho the car is 3 colors i can look past that). Your headed in the right direction tho.

I'm sure it will look really nice once it gets painted.
Now it just looks... lame.
