Hott car bro I was going to go with 17"s but now i might have to reconsider, oh and i'm going to have to "borrow" that tint tip.

 

wow, thanks for the responses.

I'll try and get some pics up shortly of all the "other" things, as well as some close-ups of the FTP's etc.

If some of you guys were stoked on my little exterior tweaks, I'm sure you'll be stoked on the interior (it's unique as well).

To the guy who suspects that the wheels only look good because the tires are' hidden in the shadows'; I think, if you were to see them in person you might change your mind. I have a vendetta against marshmallow looking tires...

There are performance benefits of a lower profile sidewall (tire). Mine are actually somewhat conservative at 225/40/18

 

Nice job!

That is one of the Cleanest FC's i have seen in awhile. Very well done!

 

Very nice car man.
Why do white FCs look best....???

Cuz we own them :P Yeah though, get as many pics as possible of your car. I want to see some night pics too! I also spot that you have the same prob as me...your fender looks kinda yellowish compared to the door...I don't know why. Mine does too. It's painted the stock crystal white..I think my car was painted in sections. People say it looks awsome, but I see that yellowish tint on the fenders...why do we have this problem??

It looks that way because the paint is old and has yellowed. You can get the car detailed or go buy a buffer and spend about 4 hours doing it yourself. I did the latter and it looks great now. When you start out, it will look way worse as any panel you haven't done yet really looks kind of greyish-yellow. Warning if you buy the buffer, you'll have lots of friends borrowing it after they see your car.

 

did you mention what the offset for those rims were??? nice job

 

I'm not sure of the offset, sorry zoomnrx7.

Also, my paintcode is actually paint-code *WY* "Noble White", not "Crystal White".

 

man that would be a dream fc of mine very stock looking, but it has the subtle things to make it awesome. great job on the car. can i steal it? lol j/k.

 

Subtleties are what makes the car. Most people naturally look over the little things and focus on the major mods they want to get. I didn't have any money when I bought the car, but since I enjoyed creative work, I made do with what I could afford (namely razor blades, paint, masking tape and electrical tape) and changed the look completely.

lol

I dunno if that's my problem..I have buffed my car out several times....I'm addicted to waxing, polishing, etc....I spend a LOT of my time detailing my car out. Used the orbital buffer a lot and it looks the same. It will shine and looks white, but I can see the small tint of yellow on the front left fender (got the right one repainted) It looks a lot like his..,look close, the door is whiter than the fender.

-and I know your paintcode is differnt. I have a 10th anny. FC Crystal white. Other TII's get Noble White.

 

Are those the 18" Rays G-Games wheels?

 

honestly i would have gone with white

 

the car looks nice man
