This looks like my car. :lol: The clear molding blinkers will make your car look even better. I have 3 left for sale.

Beautiful ride.
The zenki rear spoiler, JDM aero spats & prodrive wheels really set it off.

I'm looking to purchase those coilovers this summer.

Did you raise it up (looks higher than the pics when you first installed the coils)?

yeah I had to it was rubbing all the time and since that was as low as the car could go it made it hard for the coilvers to do what they were made for it might go back down a little bit but I need to roll the fenders first

It looks great on the outside. What a difference painting the lip, skirts and rear valence makes.

Looks really good. It also looks alot like mine. I have the jdm tails, jdm grill, aerogaurds, clear side markers, and a greddy lip. my wheels are konigs but are the same seven spoke design, but I painted mine gold.
