I'll say if you wanna be extremely clean, leave the whole thing stock. Boost gauge, a lowered stance, and keep the stock rims.

But I'm not dissing the cars I've seen in this thread, they're pretty clean.

I like Scorpio's too.... :)

Cleanest one I've ever seen...well, besides jimlab's, but his doesn't count. ;)

Big red , Im picking up some gram lights aoon, Could you send me the info on yours and some pics? The cars are all clean IMO.
I think that Fd3BOOST has the cleanest car that I have evert seen in person though. Hands down .

This was done in my shop. We took the time to fit the kit and mold the side skirts into place. Most don't even know that there's side skirt. If done right, kits can look clean. Just takes time.

Looks nice.

LOVE those high res pics.

i think it looks better wivout the side skirt... just my .02...
btw, u need to get that car some lowering springs!! :D

I think FD's look great when they graduate from the stock wheels. The visual effect of lowering alone is noticable even with the stock wheels. I don't like slammed bugggies, but the FD is one of those cars that comes with such beautiful lines that closing the wheel well gap and accenting it with rims just does it right. I have an HKS Hiper exhaust and I really like it for the flow it opens up with a downpipe, but once I have the money to be spending on an extra exhaust, I think I will go for a Racing Beat/M2 dual tip, or a single if I can get some performance and sound comparisons. Every time I walk up to the car in the lot, I grin while I'm admiring the body lines, but once that race style exhaust comes into view, it kind of distorts the elegance of the car. As far as body lines, I really love the wingless option. I prefer to match lip spoilers with their compatible year front ends. 99 with 99 and 93-95 with the same. I think mix matching the front ends and lips leaves a noticable contrast in detail. The 99's are just too sharp for that smooth front end the 93-95's come with. I am a big fan of the full 99 conversions, though. The turn signals really catch your eye. I like part changes that make the car look and feel newer. I'd really like to do the upholstry sometime too when I have the money. If I knew how to attach pictures to my post, I'd put up a couple shots of a Karmann Ghia that was just restored at the shop in Taiwan. My girlfriend's dad loves them and he knows restoration. All original parts for one thing... but nothing compares to the perfection he finished it off with- full Bentley leather interior. If I could go Gordon Monsen style, I would.

clean means a nice paint job, the money your mother give for you to use on it :) , and what your taste is! but more of what money your mother gives you ;)

wow! nice cars, that is the first CYM 7 I have actually liked, the color is just not for me, but with the cleanness and black wheels it looks fantastic.

I agree with the first post though, it definately needs dual tips, for some reason singles just look like ass to me. It also needs the front lip in BLACK. These are just my opinions, however.

But can someone point out which pics have the 99 spec front spoiler and which ones have the US front spoiler? I'm not sure which is which.

personally, an all stock exterior with r1 lip, rp-01's and lowered a tad. cym would be the obvious color choice, but i think that would look good on all but white cars. i don't think rp-01's suit white cars.

Sparco NSII Vipers. 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear.

Bridgestone Potenza S-02s. 265/40ZR18 front and 285/30ZR18 rear.

^^OLD SKOOL!

This thread is so ancient none of the pics are working..... welcome back Jeff ;)

Sheeeesh!

This forum has to have the record for most resurrected threads. Seriously how did you know that though?? It just came to you in a dream and you typed in thread 156042 go go power rangers?

I knew the wheels and tires because I selected them.

That was my CYM and I took that photo.

Holy thread bump

I look forward to your response in 2025 :lol:

I think these news side skirts that everyone is doing in frp fits into the Clean and tasteful category.

I'd say those started being popular a few years back.

Still looks better without IMO :egrin:

Clean to me means: nice overall mechanical and physical condition car with no accident history

Yeah, having sold the RX-7 in 2001, I don't visit here very often.

But thanks for keeping score. I guess *someone* has to do it or we'd NEVER know how long it's been since we posted.

Just wait until Goodfellas grandkids come on to answer old FD questions. Eventually it's going to happen and Montego will be here as a very old man telling them to "GET OFF MY LAWN!"
:)

...but dude...you're doing it wrong. You're supposed to get back to me in at least 4 years. sigh....


:bigthumb: yep right under all the V8 guys still trying to justify their conversion to themselves and everyone else... :D :molepoke:

Edit: oh and that's Mr. Montego, you whippersnapper. Ugh the youth of today... :oldbawb:
