If he wants to be "ricey" so be it, you know how many people say **** about the whole "jdm" scene, it is just like the "ricer" phase. And with it being what under the hood that counts... bs... I'd personaly rather have a good looking car than a beater that is fast. Sure I don't mind having speed and winning a race, but when it comes down to it, I could care less if I win a race on the street, doesn't prove much.
Agreed, I just always give the "rice" speech to noobies because that's how I was accepted here when I first came along saying the same things and with some help and advice from many on here I turned it all around and went clean on everything and still am. of course I don't mind what he does to his car, it's his vehicle and he does what he wants I know and respect that.

And bud if you want cornering speed that means suspension

I WILL let the pictures do the talking!! hold me to that.

Yes I have painted a hatch before I am using a gun and compressor set up atomizer the whole nine yards. although I have lost my paint booth so I am doing this outside which calls for tons of sanding and waiting for sun as its been 30 degrees here to cold to paint.

final color is going to be a silver, with the new deep steelies and new front end when I get corner lights and assembled expect a HUGE difference. Thanks for looking guys I promise on the pictures.

some low qaulity teasers. My new wheels look astounding in person(IMHO)
offset is perfect nice and wide with some nice dish to them(IMHO) Going to have to go lower to have it sitting how I want it. I'm on race bilstein struts and springs, older models, will probaly cut off a coil up front and back, or use my old setup in the back...

paint is going on tomorrow.

thats all thanks to anyone who is looking

don't hack the springs. its dangerous and gives you a ****ty ride. we're all on a tight budget, but do it right or you'll regret it later.
