    i paid $400 for my jdm front plus whatever your paint place charges

    the only rims you could afford are used.

    you can get lowering springs and shock for that much or save another $350 and coilovers

    NO! get rims first they will change the overall sexiness off the car the most. Nothing worse than hubcaps or black steelies. yucky yucky

    I say drop. New struts/shocks and springs. I don't know if the 7G uses shocks, struts or both.

    Tinting heads is def illegal, so is tails but only the picky cops really care about that. Look on craigslist for some wheels.

    Also i was thinking about fog lights ? Maybe yellow .... i dont have stock ones so how do i put them up? is it hard? Also i dont want HID but i want my head to be brighter , any light bulbs that are really bright? I was thinking about SilverStar Ultra High ?

  15. #15
    where can you get a front lip?

  16. #16
    there arent really any bulbs that make a major diff... i had everywhere from stock to eurolite and silverstar. I suggest HIDs 4300 to 6000 k maybe 8000k but thats pushing it.

    as far as the fogs.. if you buy the oem it's just color matching to the harness, if not.. get the hella optilux 2500 they are the perfect for the 8gs idk if they fir on yours... search up a bit.. im' sure there's something you can do for 5bills

  18. #18
    it does make a difference compared to oem bulbs.. but not nothing major as hids woulds.. and if your going to spend 60 on silverstars.. why not go all out and put 100 towards hids for a much batter out put? lol..
