oh hai
so, this isn't an update on what i've done to my car yet, more like an update on what's to come. lol.

-skunk2 coilovers
-5 speed conversion (because i couldn't stand to part with my car to get a new one. lol.)
-HIDs
-mugen replica front lip
-painting it dark gray (anyone know exact color names?)
-yellow fog tint
-powder-coating the rims teal
-side markers
-front end bra (only gonna keep it on during the summer so it won't ruin the paint)
-rear wing delete? (can't decide)
-calipers white? (also can't decide)

so, here's the color scheme I'm hoping to stick with, it won't look too girly & crap. i'm thinking the valve cover or the lug nuts would be pink, something not too noticeable right off hand.


I'm dedicating my summer to fixing my car up. Let's hope I at least get some of this taken care of. lol. & i would like to add that my front acura symbol fell off on the highway today....makes me sad..

I love the teal colour you picked for the rims! People here might call it ricey, but I think it looks great!
If you want my opinion on the rear wing, I'd say keep it. Teggy's without the wings look good too, but I like 'em so I say keep it haha
Oh and if you paint your calipers, I think you should get stainless steel rotors/discs (whatever you wanna call em). Rusted discs with painted calipers ruins the look.
And bumper bra for the summer? I would think you'd use it in the winter.

Yea, I'm sure people would call it ricey with the blue, but whatever. it's not. lol. & yea, if i keep it on in the winter, all the moisture & stuff would get stuck in it. At least that's what I'm thinking. lol.

Well as long as you think it looks good you're fine. Some people think my underdash neon's are ricey, but whatever I like 'em.
I don't know about the bra locking in moisture, I doubt it would, but you could check.

Nah... it not ricey to have crazy colored rims. I think they will look good. IMO the silver you got now looks good, and i'd keep the stock spoiler.

yeaa, i'm pretty sure i've talked to him about it. but i don't think if i keep it on for like a super long time that it will do any damage...? .
