that blue only look good in the sun light cause it has metallic in it and when in the shade the paint is Dull...

Attachment 9606

and this blue was an old Maaco paint job and no more shine to it. Only looks good in Sun light.

and i think the RED looks more Aggressive

I LOVE the RED much better!!! It definitely more aggressive. :)

and those wing are OEM 92-95 JDM ferio spoiler. (and they ain't Cheap)...lol

Dipsetcivic117 09-14-2010 07:26 AM

red looks alot better. maybe because its better paint(newer).

and those ferio wings are far from cheap. but they make the car look so much better. i wanted one so bad when i had my eg8, but no dough to dish out for the wing.

car is looking great pls

Superfly 10-06-2010 08:38 AM

Yeah I'm not too crazy about the graphite color either. I think white would look better.

But even so, the car looks great!

Kenny-g 10-07-2010 03:03 PM

I like the wheels either way but what kind of front lip is that? It looks out of place with the new Si sideskirts. I like the sideskirts though.

Dipsetcivic117 10-07-2010 03:11 PM

its a mugen 4dr front lip. i dont want to say its a replica because we are talking about pls who changes rims at the same rate i change underwears. so it might be authentic.

and i think it flow nicely. wish my car looked like that. might still have it.

Nope, lip is just a Eg Mugen Rep lip. I daily drive the car and don't really want to buy the REAL DEAL.


And here is a quick shot....i'm not even done yet, man these wheels are a pain, to sand down...still have to put clear coat.

Just a note, both of your cars got nominated for November Ride of the Month. Check that section out. You can accept one of the nominations.

Those are still two REALLY legit and clean cars.

the ek coupe/hatch don't bolt right on, but the sedan one does, just one clip don't match.

for couple/hatch, you'll have to drill new wholes for the clip.
