Default PICS!PICS!PICS! Before's and After's

Alright so some of the things that i have done to my car in the past few weeks include.....De-badging the back, Painting my break calipers red, painting my rocker panals and front and back bumpers grey, and putting a pinstripe just above it, doing some minor red wiring under the hood as well as painting the 3.0 Vtec red. Here are some before's and After's. I would really like some feedback even if its just a looks good, or ur car sucks lol just want some peoples opinions. Also sorry for having u click on the links but im dumb and cant figure out how to do the attachments, anyways here they are!

Very nice, clean look. I didn't think I would like the de-badging on the back but, I think it turned out looking really nice.

Yeah, you're heading in the right direction.

Pin-stripes gone....check,

Engine bay cleaned...check

Are you going to keep the car white?

I like those subtle little touchs that make people go "hm, that looks good. What's different about it?" it reminds me of a where's waldo poster that looks good... I like those taillights... Mind if I ask what the overall cost involved has been thus far?

Umm well i bought the car used and the tailights where already on there, but with painting and pinstriping and wiring, really not much at all just got the car, doing the easy and cheap quick stuff so prolly all together about 100 bucks, the CAI was also installed before i got the car.....

Hey man, not bad modifications, but some suggestions. U should have left the 3.0 Vtec silver like it was and change the emblem instead. I left my whole engine orignal, just have some guy wash it for $100 and u would be shocked if I show it to you in person. It looks like the engine of a 2006 car brand new out of the factory...or @ least VERY close to it. But yeah, u should also thinking about lowering your car about 3 inches...trust me...it would be PERFECT...I lowered mines 2.5 inches and I KNOW for a fact that 3 inches would be no better. I can tell you more but im kind of busy. You can e-mail me anytime @ ThienT2003@yahoo.com
Peace!
