How can you un-pimp something that never was pimp?
haha ouch. i honestly liked the car except the wing. stock si wing would look great. love the doors, rims and lights, but a lip is probly better then whole bumpers. good luck bro!

lol Ouch.

Anywho...
Rims and taillights got here at about 12 while I was still at school. It was like x-mas came early when I got home,but then I remembered I paid for them.

The rims aren't actually going to go on until summer because I don't want to chance messing them up, steel rims will be replacing the 18" rims here in a week or two.

I have a question about my taillights, my clears look like they only have one light in each housing (total of 4) and my si replicas have a place for 2 in each (total of 8). But I was looking at them in the dark so I'm not sure. I'm guessing I need to buy all new lights, anyone know where to get them. Surely advance auto would have them but I don't like going there because they have no f-ing idea what they are talking about so I have to know exactly what I need. I hope I don't have to re-wire the lights also, that would be a pain in the *** since it is snowing outside.

I also think I changed my mind about the lips too, I think I want mugen style lips instead of type r's because you can barely evennotice there is a lip with the type r's. I was also looking for some fog lights and the only place I can find some that fit my 96-98 is on ebay and I would rather buy them somewhere else, anyone want to hook me up with a link?

Are you talking about the OEM square and circle fogs? You can try passwordjdm ones, here are the square and here are the circle ones.

okay finally time for an update.

Peg, I got my wheels from www.discounttiredirect.com They still probably aren't going on for another month

I don't know if I want fog lights now either, I kind of like the look of it without them but maybe I will get them later on. As things have went I decided to start a nitrous project also as some of you might have seen that thread, well it took up all my other money so I don't have the money left for the coilovers now so it will not be lowered for awhile.

Okay, on to the pictures (sorry they are a bit smaller this time):
Rear almost done, Si replica taillights installed, stock bumber, and no park bench on the back. I will install the rear lip when I change the wheels because that will give me more room for the drill.

I also ordered a new vanity plate but it hasn't gotten here yet.

No more lambos: (I must admit... I still kind of miss them)

I am still waiting to find some sideskirts also, by the looks of ebay I think I will be paying around $100-120 for them.

I think you got the same style tail lights I got. Are the clear blinkersslightly tinted?

It's funny how people go through a lot of work to "pimp" there car, and then go through a lot of work to go back to near stock. Not to poke fun at you....just something thats pretty common on this site. Are you going to leave the fenders?
