New Member...NEW PICS!! *Updated 10-24*

Hey guys, I'm fairly new here to the ORG and I just felt it was time I let you see my car. Its still very much a work in progess. I just bought the car in late August so I haven't had much time to mod it. Anyhow my first setup was a set of JIC coilovers w/ Enkie LM1 20" rims. That sucked!!! The JICs made daily driving a nightmare and the 20's...well they were just to big. SOLD all of that crap and now I'm rolling on 19's w/ Tein S. Tech and Tokico Shocks. I love this setup! I can't see why anyone would buy any other springs other than if they wanted to race the car. So thats basically all the mods I have. I "upgraded" my HID D2S bulbs to 8500k which look sweet but don't put out a whole lot of light. Oh and I have a Stillen body kit ready to be painted all I need is that damn front lip if it is ever made. Ok well enjoy the pics...I might post a few more later tonight or tomorrow.

Thanks for all the nice words guys. I hope that after I put the Stillen kit on it will look that much better. I do not have pics of my old setup...well not with the wheels on just the JICs. Anyhow here are a few more night shots that came out ok.

Looks awesome! Although the rear side markers are a wee bit pink. How is the quality of the wheels? I have always wondered about Excel.

For me its a better setup....this car just gets me to work/school and back thats it. I went way over board buying JIC's for this purpose. Hell I sold them and bought the wheels and the new suspension setup. Anyhow I've had no problems at all with the wheels. Other than being a bit heavy they seem to be made well.

Thats looks amazing! How much did you pay for those rims and what kind are they, if you dont mind me asking? I have been thinking about 19s with a polished lip for a while.(but in silver, though the grey/grey looks great.) The ones that I like always end up costing a ton!

Oh, I cant wait to drop mine! Will there be a huge difference with the progress/kyb gr2 set up? B/C that drop is beautiful!

Grey Luster Rules!

Absolutely awesome my friend. Those rims are fantasic. Are they heavier than the stock rims. Right now I am all go and no show. Your car makes me re-evaluate things though.

Thanks for all the nice words guys! Like I said before the car is a work in progress. I hope by next spring to have the kit on and a few performance mods done. Also I'm very sorry about my image host they go up and down all the time so if you can see the pics just check back in a few hours.

Looks awesome, no doubt. But spacers in the back would set it off and make it look so muscular and agressive. . . I dont know if they make the car handle differently or awkwardly though.
