i realize its a work in progress but:

red emblems gotta go.

hood is too aggressive for the rest of the car. that hood looks out of place without some 18/19" low offset wheels and a lower stance.

Thanks for the input. The hood looks better on my summer rims, but I'm not really concerned about how small and weird the rims are when I'm just trying not to skid in the snow

I've wanted to lower the car for a while and the suspension would have been my next stop had I not been in a fender bender and used the opportunity to upgrade the bumper and hood.

And I like my black and red roundels

1trip5 · 12-26-2010, 01:01 AM

summer wheels and a drop and no doubt it'll be lookin good.

I had red roundels.. But in Fl they kept fading orange.... So I tossed them.. I really liked them...

not a fan of the roundels but everything else looks great

is that the iCarbon hood?

also, im assuming all the covers on the front bumper are missing cause of your lil fender bender

thank you!

It's seibon's gtr style hood. iCarbon's vented hood has only one vent per side in approx the same place. Their "non-vented" hood has two smaller honeycomb style vents further up towards the power dome.

And yep, you're right. Along with the black grilles a coupe of the trim pieces were on "special order"
