    looks like nates car.. and your car wont do 135 unless your goin down hill with a wind at your back.. on a flat with no wind, you will hit 120-125 but closer to 120

    looks all good. i say stick with the blue paint theme. like the black rubber parts on your doors, they would look good in the blue accent paint you used elsewhere on the car.
    Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™

    Drop it, and put 17" on it . If you are gonna go custom with a drop, atleast go big ass custom with a big ass frop!!! lol. You can pick up a set of Quantum Tecs at schwab's for $110 apiece, if you like the quantum look, I htink they look great for such an inexpensive wheel, I'd run em . I don't particularly like the royal blue accent with the blue (cheesy 2 tone feel) but whatever floats your boat. BTW, 1.5" eibach pro kit lowering springs: $287 (that is without the employee discount )

    Definitly looks like Nates old car. Same wheels and everything.

    Sweet car, nice and clean. A mild drop on those 15's would make it look great. IMO, I'm not a big fan of the color blue you picked for accents, but it's not my car. Overall, nice. Keep it clean and WELCOME TO 3GEEZ (as a member I mean.)

    Some cool ass pics too.

    Very clean, nice car. And for about the 20th time, it needs to be lowered. Otherwise no complaints here.
    Thinking about getting a new 3g...

    actualy the paint is a lot more darker then that... the color is off a bit because it was cloudy when i took those pics (i'm in washington, we dont get much sunny days here :cool2: ). The paint also has a metalic look to it. As for lowering it... I plan on lowering it... where can you get those eibach pro kit lowering springs? Can you get them at lesschwab's or do i have to order them online?

    I got mine at les scwab. I got them with the tokicos. Most people say its a bad combo but its the wifeys car and she drives like a grandma. I may put KYBs on it or something. I am very unimpressed with my konis right now so i wouldnt even suggest that. if you could find them.

    Where are you at in WAshington. im in lynnwood near the alderwood mall. theres more and more popping up around here. Kinda cool

    I live in Oak Harbor on Whidbey Island. We have a les scwab here and i asked them how much it would cost to lower it 1.5 inch and they said $400... So i'm looking for springs from some place else and install it myself...
