How does it look? Need opinion on extras

[neoblue89lxi]

I finally bought a new digital camera and decided to post some pics of my baby. I can use some advice on what else I can do to make her look better. I'm planning to lower her but not sure by how much and please feel free to recommend some brands to me.

New paint job that is like the matalic laurel blue but a little darker shade. New 16 inch rims with chrome lip. Toyo proxes tires wrape them up. New side turn lights, mirror tint, and blue neons. The engine is in great shape but completly stock. I've spent alot on keeping it up tp par by having to get altenator timing belt, water pump, new a/c system, exhaust because the other had fallen off, and some other stuff like new control arms.
Hope you enjoy the pics and by the way love the website.











The interior is like new. No tears in anything. New blue carpet put in. New windshield for free due to Florida law. Insurance payed for it "A bird hit it and cracked it." The fabric is not even faded.



I got a new pioneer premier system put throughout the car. New 3way 6.5s in the front, 4way 6by9s in the rear deck and a 12 in the trunk powered by a JL audio 250/1 amp. This is definitly enough thump for me.





I just put in a Reator neon kit under my car as you can see. They are bright as hell.

how much did that kit cost

[neoblue89lxi]

I got it installed for 175 but i think that was a hell of a deal.

[neoblue89lxi]

I was very surprised at how easy it was to install neons so if you want them go ahead and if you need help with how or want to see underbody pics let me know. I had to do something simpl but special to get the front tube to light up the grill too. It was so worth it.

[89AcCOrDmike]

my only opinon would be to drop it, otherwise it looks VERY hot..i like

[neoblue89lxi]

How much of a drop do you think it needs.

[luCid89LXi]

get a body kit deff. man it would go better with the ground effects, and no offene but i dont think older cars look good with neons ya know, but a kit would make it look better

2.25 to 3.0 drop would be NICE. IF you get Coilovers, use GC's and up the spring rates to 450 front/ 400 rear. get some revalved Bilstien struts that Match the spring rates and then some.

man i think u guys are nuts for doing 3" drops, i mean that's like a show drop, it HAS to suck driving it, i mean i have a 2" and i have to take care driving myself, so i can only imagine a 3", i mean yeah it looks good but driveability must suck, i say 2.25" ......2.50" at most


P.S- and what about the n00b said, i don't think he was trying to be an ass, he just a made a comment, aren't we entitled to our own opinions? so he doesn't think underglo's look good on older cars? so what, it's his opinion, and yes i think it would look better with a kit too, i think u need to chill out and watch what u say, i bet u wouldn't have said that to any1 else on this board......man i'm glad my n00b days are over.......

[i.c.]

damn thats clean....

[cdscowboy]

That car is super clean man...very nice! I like the neons, too Do consider getting a body kit for it, and I'm gonna agree with original2k...a 2" or 2.5" drop at most.

Keep up the good work man!!!

[smufguy]

IMO, turn off the underbody neons till you put some performance parts on your motor. BUt other than that, its very clean.

[iloveJDMblackrims69]

to make it even look cleaner........ paint your tails red.... and paint the moldings... that car is very very nice by the way! love it man...

[BDaccordguy]

man, u car is very clean. It does need a drop, but other than that, i love it. also, i think ur neons look hella sweet, im gonna get some yellow or purple ones.

[neoblue89lxi]

Do oyu all think instead of getting one of those ugly bodykits I can just lower a couple inches and add a lip to the front bumper? Or would it look bad like that?

your going down the right direction my man.

If you dont want race car type of stiffness and want some sort of comfort. dont go lower than 2.25.

[89AcCOrDmike]

I think adding a lip and lowering it a few inches looks more tasteful and cleaner than a body kit when it comes to our cars, also the lip is much cheaper than the body kits! so i'm with goldy on this one

[Neuspeed007]

blue neon is my style on the 3g. i was planning on a under body kit when i was done with the mods. where did u get ur kit? ebay?

I've got at LEAST a 3 inch drop on mine and its fun to drive. Its not that harsh of a ride either. Sure, you have to be careful where you go, but its worth it.

Blue looks good!

hey screw you guys thats just my opinion
