I'd like to hear your opinions...

ok, my car right now is this:

red, lowered, 18" silver rims, clear front and rear bumper lenses, and jdm black housing headlamps.

http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/84007...C2ZI.A96XiZyvC

im thinking of continuing the dark look (jdm headlights) on with the rest of the car and get things such as carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber taillights. however i know i'll catch a bunch of sh!t with the altezza style lights and id really rather not hear it. i like how they look but then again i get pissed off quick when people start knocking my car. so im thinking i really like how the red/clear lights look. i could buy a pair of clear taillights for cheap on ebay, paint the brake light part red with transparent model car paint and leave the blinker/reverse part clear and forget the carbon fiber hood. by the way, in either case im getting the ww rs lip kit. then, should i paint it the stock milano red, or go for a deeper, more custom red? so many options! uh! anyway, if you guys could give your constructive opinions, i'd be very appreciative. thanks!

hmmm sounds a lil familiar. on my lude (93 vtec) its now electron blue with the r.s. kit. the thing is i went for the blue and the dark look too...so i have the electron blue with the CF hood, black projectors, black corners, i used the black spray tint on the front bumper and rear bumper lenses and have the CF altezzas (i dont think those look as cheesy as the other ones but i did wat u said about the cheap clears on ebay) oooh and i have gunmetal rims too.

I like your wheels. They're RH right or are they a knock-off? Also, what's your suspension setup? I like your drop, in fact, I like everything about your car.

As for the tail light topic, the new APC carbon altezzas are actually pretty nice, but the conventional altezza STINKS of rice!!

So what you're saying is a darker red like San Marino red, carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber alrezzas, JDM headlights, silver 5 spoke wheels....I just can't picture that.

I have Skunkworks adjustable perch springs (coilovers)....In that pic, it's pretty low but drivable even with the 19's. The tires do scrub a little when cornering though...

preludex2....are you the owner of that car? i saw the article about your car in honda tuning and i saw a your car in person at hot import nights in atlanta....snapped a few pics of it. i really like your car and its cool that you live in ga.
anyways, yes, those are real 18" Racing Hart M5s and i have a full Tein HA Damper 16-way adjustable coilover set threaded all the way down and im using an ingalls camber kit. i rarely have tire scrub. oh yeah, and im thinking of finishing off the look with carbon fiber splitters if i can get a hold of some for a reasonable price. i also like the cf sunroof idea that satan-srv is cooking up.

Whoopsy!! Sorry. Oh well, you and your HUSBAND have done a great job... your car is one of my inspirations.

Side note, what do you two have planned for the engine? Are you gonna keep the setup? Swap for vtec? Turbo, more nitrous, etc?
