I'm about to do some little things to my car. I have an appointment at 9 saturday morning to get my windows tinted at Tint Spectrum. Right now, I'm trying to decide what taillights to get. Since my car is white and I have carbon fiber side mirrors, I'm thinking for getting the carbon fiber/clear deal:

This seems to be the best way to go to me. I don't really like the look of clears with white paint. It dosen't seem to fit for some reason. So this is the best I could come up with, and it dosen't look that bad to me. I'm thinking of just smoking out the windows, a little darker than legal limit here. But I'm open to ideas. I saw a bad eclipse the other day that had some kind of blue flames out of tint on mirror tint deal. It looks alright really. No idea how much that will cost me, and the fact that's probably majorly illegal. But I don't really care. Leave some input.

Alright. I had the windows tinted saturday. (I know this post is a little late). Anyway, I'm thinking it looks so much better. Here the before and after:

Let me know what y'all think. I believe I'm going for some Eibach pro-kit lowering springs for my next mod. Seems like a good idea, won't lower much and will get rid of most of my wheel gap.

yeah i was thinking they were 18's. your car does seem to have alot of ground clearance. you should get some factory stuff(side skirts/ front air dam) that'd help alot, then a drop would complete the look. IMO.

Yeah, IMO? Anyway thanks man for checking out the car and leaving some comments.

looks good man. yeah a drop would definitely be reccomended. it looks to me that the front has more than 1.4" gap there.

ditch the "STEAL ME" sticker on the windshield......if i was a bastard thief i'd hit you 1st........trust me.....

and i say go with what you like....if you like those tails then get um......who cares what anyone else thinks....


anyway i LOVE hatches......get a mild bodykit...nothing gaudy...make the car look sprty and clean at the same time.....keep the rims that color....whote on white is just soo much.......go do your interior accented in white(assuming its grey or black) and drop thatr *****......just my opinion though.......


you gotta ditch the kicker sticker though.....bad publicity...asking for someone to break in......i know from experience


PS spelling is bad cause i'm drunk
