Default my whip

Just wanted to see what you guys/gals here think of my ride so far. Crappy camera I know.

So far, CIA, headers, and free flow muffler (not cat back yet : / )
17" Motegi MR3's that dont have center caps, cuz somehow, the warehouse didn't ship them, in later this week.





Needs a drop i know

edit: Fixed the free web hosting, images should be good for about 11 days.

damn, youre off roading it. hopefully thatll be fixed soon. i like youre muffler, subtle and oem looking. just get the piping to go w/ it. i like the rims as well and if i were you id go with a stealth look. black housing headlights and corners, smoke the bumper lenses. what else do you have planned?

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. Anyways, I DO plan on dropping it either 1.3 or 1.9 inches, I can't decide what will look the best yet. I have 215/45/17 tyres on there, so I prolly won't go too low.

In terms of future plans, it is a high milage care for the year (96), however they are all hiway miles. Thus, if I end up keeping the car for more than another year or so, I'm gonna start saving for an H22 swap. That way, I can pretty much get a new car for $5k, but keep all the money I've invested so far. Besides, it's kinda hard to beat a 14 sec Accord to $5k.

I am going for the stealth look, so I will prolly loose the original headlamps and go with some black JDM ones. For the taillights, I was thinking the Alzetta style ones, but having the housing be black instead of clear (I saw a nice pair fo these for pretty cheap, and they don't look ricey). I am going to keep the amber turn signals I think, and just coat them with the same black stuf that one of the other members here put on the taillights of his new Accord (his name escapes me, but he's got pics of his car in his sig).

So a H22 swap, a drop, and some minor cosmetics are my next step.

not bad so far. my ride used to be that high for the longest time and i got a lot of SH!T about being a 4x4. but its all good. as long as you plan to drop it, no worries. you just have to deal with the sh!t until then. looks good though.
