    Its gonna look good. Like somebody mentioned earlier in the post, no rice here. I think the M3 mirrors look good. They should look pretty good on her car. I guess we'll see.

    Another addition!!


    They're actually for the vigor/inspire, but they're only about 1/8" too high and 1/2" - 1" too wide so they'll fit with minimal amount of body work........(fingers crossed).

    Nice man. Although, I would start worrying about that drop a little. Soon you will probably be going through a set of tires each year. (she will i mean). I have a friend who had a 4th gen with a 2.75-3" drop, and they did everything and never got the camber right. But that was also with lo-pro tires, so maybe not so quick with stock.

    And I have a friend with a nice 92 coupe EX-r. I will show you some pics of it. He got clear corners & bumper lights, and we painted the yellow part of the tails red instead of spending hundreds on new ones (total cost was $11). And we made a custom grill which looks awesome. I will show you pics as soon as I can.

    Don't know what you're smokin! Her car looks pretty fucking nice. Its a work in progress and we havent had enough money to do a whole lot yet. Her main goal is to look good and she's slowly working toward that goal. She's more about show then go.

    people powder coat rims all the time and it hold perfectly.........the lights are a no go because they are the wrong size and would take too much money in custom body work to make them fit.

    So? There's a point in time that they would be slammed on stock rims.

    I for one did that. since i wanted to do the lowering first. BTW, my old car was Champange! Do to others what you want done to you. Don't assert your opinion when it's not done yet.
    sorry guys v8's rule
