The 5th gen 17"s look great on a 4th. Wanted to put some on mine, but got a great deal on some used crome 5 spokes (like 1/4th the price of the max rims) so went with them. Did you lower it? It don't look stock

Rims are a great touch, and I'm in love with the headlights. They definately accent the car color better than the chromies would have. Good decision.

looks great, one critiscism though, i think that side corner looks smoked wayyy too much, kind of throws the clean look of the car off imo

If he lowers it a bit more, he'll end up busting an axle.

By then you really wouldn't wanna lower it more if you don't want to constantly bang or scrape the lip on the pavement.

Real clean, I would keep the AE headlights, but go back to stock clearance lights.

If I could do it over, I would lightly paint the inner housing of the corner lamps because I really don't like how dark the JDM bumper lenses are. I would then take a regular clear bumper lense and lightly paint the inside to match with the corners.
