I took this pic on a whim yesterday. Hell with it though, I'll share it anyway.

Now that I have it back, here's my list of what I want to do...
-->Window Tint
-->Exhaust
-->Carbon Fiber Hood?
Maybe a body kit someday, if I find something I like better than stock. Maybe some vinyl, as well. Something subtle.
Anyway, there you have it.
Nice but we need better pics. You coming to the A any time soon??Quote:

The guys at the body shop even clearcoated that grey plastic trim on the front and back bumpers. Factory didn't do that either. So basically, you can't even tell it was ever wrecked except for odd places where it looks better now, lol.

New wheels yes .... black or bronze, your only options.
I like the Axis Gold rim, but they don't fit. I like bronze better than black though. :)
EDIT: Hmmm, how about white rims?
I think white with a black lip would look sweet. Or white with a black lip. Something different, nobody probably makes a wheel like that though.
White with a chrome lip doesnt look so hot, full on white is too much white on a white car.
your car is too JDM to not get bronze, do it up
I also like Cali's wheels - Black with chrome lip.
Yo...did you have after markets before or none at all? I ask because I finally got my OEM fogs, but I cant figure out how to mount them...is there a stock mount or what? No one can seem to tell me.Quote:

btw - does anyone else have jdm heads in the 02-03 bumper? i think i am the only one in colorado with jdm heads. mindwerkz has clear jdm tails.
ivory: damn, that sucks. i CAN imagine how pissed you are about that. dont worry, get it paid for and snag one of phil's or someone else's before they are gone
yea they do look aqua but nice, plans sound good, ur staying with that bumper tho right? itll be different but in a good way, nice to see somthing different than the vr4 bumpers :lol:
I'm having trouble getting a hold of this guy. Did anything happened Pedro?

Expectedly, I did not discover any large deposits of torques while I was there.
