Default Mini Photoshoot 2: RIMS

This is the photo post that some have been waiting for. I finally got past how bad it looks to have rims with stock ride height and rear drum breaks and just put the dang rims on the car. Here you go.

A preface, though. When washed and waxed, this paint looks really good. Here are some pics that show why I like Honda's Titanium Metallic (YR-525M):

It has that deep sparkle to it. Anyways, to the rims...

And now, you can see that the car has a really nice stance.

One last thing I'd like to share that no one ever sees: The interior.

There's where my original emblems went. They were 7th gen emblems, which is why I took them off the back of my 6th gen Civic.

And this is my CD player mod. When the cup holder lid is down, its business as usual. When the faceplate is gone and the lid is up, you can't see that there is an aftermarket head unit.

Oh, and yes. A coke exploded down there. I forgot to clean that before I took pics. Its really clean now.

Nice looking 4 door monster truck haha. It will look a million times better once you get to the suspension mods. Do you plan on doing a 5 speed swap too?

The whole engine is gonna go at some point, replaced with a B16a2. I sure hope it'll be a 5 speed. Depends on what I can find on the cheap.
