The car looks nice other than it looks like your going 4X4ing and the Sunken Battleship wheels you've got goin ..

Buy some wheels in the correct offset and get some coilovers or springs ...

I like hte kit itself though , looks very nice

Mine looks like that when washed.

I think the front of your FC would look better with White Parking lenses...It'll add more appeal and take away the Orange (on how It stands out with that particular Blue). Either than that It looks good.

Do you have any Engine Bay shoots? It looks slow.

anyhow, I also have HKS Hi-Power exhaust kit sitting in my storage unit, waiting for my new engine.

Not too bad at all. I see you have a ground wire kit. Is it worth buying? I was kinda wondering because I was looking into them.

not bad, but IMO it would look a lot better if the wheels filed up the rear fenders.

I believe he is refering to a grounding kit being the equivalen to snake oil products. Since you can build your own out of high quality speaker wire and gold connectors for 1/5th the cost of most "brand name" kits.


If you payed anything more than 20 dollars for a ground kit you got jipped.

Dang $600? That's not bad at all. I want to get my car painted there. Is it a small business or a chain paint shop?
