So my 10AE just came out of the body shop and looks brand spanking new.. I am going to put a lip, side skirts and rims. The problem is i dont know which ones and what color to go with..

I have been toying with i few ideas and so far this is what i have

This lip https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.ph...t=FC+front+lip

plus Odula sides https://www.rx7club.com/jkl-engineering-271/gb-fc3s-odula-sides-oem-sideskirts-replica-804146/

and rims i am totally not even close to a decision partially because i have been out of the Visual side of the modding spectrum for a few years now. I do like the SSR SP-1's (but dont know what color LOL)

So now to the color combination... Don't know whether i should stick with all white, or get black lip/rims/skirts or maybe CF??

Sooooo confused and not able to come to any decisions here lol so any help or pics and such would be appreciated. Oh and btw dont bother mentioning using a body kit because that is out of the question for me.

BTW i put this in the visual/exterior subforum and no responses i think not too many ppl go on that part of the forum

 

Black Rims Would look very good.

 

Bronze rims to match the glass FTW

Think hard before kitting out an AE. It may actually decrease the value of the car, if selling it down the road is a possibility

 

Tony bronze rims FTW for shure! they kick *** thats what im gonna be doing
TwEaK

 

Nitro has a point. But you can just keep stockers and put them on/remove rims when you go to sell.

Black rims are key.

 

yes i realize the whole value thing.. i respect the car and that's why i wont be doing a body kit or any interior mods... Everything that goes on the car will be bolt on and all parts will be stored till the day i can afford an FD then she goes back to stock and maybe even an off the frame restroration I have no plans of selling it quite frankly i LOVE it

 

I know there are plenty of opinions and exterior styling gurus on this forum show me some love guys!!!

 

personally I would go with stock skirts and a front lip of some sorts
This way the car still looks original, to do stock skirts or pretty much any skirts you have to change the moldings/bumpers.

wheels are all up to you man

 

^^Thats why i wish they made undersides for the S4 we get no love.. Anybody know of any by any chance?? I dont think i would have to change the moldings for bolt up side skirts do i??

And rims... man that is probably the part i am the most lost and uneducated about lol. The only thing i know about rims is i dont want them to cost me more than 2k

 

issue is most skirts have the s5 molding built into them

maybe someone knows of skirts that leave the stock molding? Then you would not have to do bumpers, you could just do skirts and a front lip

 

I've seen people trim off the moulding part of S5 TII sideskirts so they can either keep their s5 pieces or use them on an s4.

A while ago I was thinking about test fitting some feed sidesteps for an FD just to see what it looks like. A friend of mine put it up against his car a while back and it looked decent.

 

Just to clarify.. By molding u mean the outer trim right?
