To kinda understand where I'm comming from, I'm a pretty artistic guy, so I have this twisted sort of angle on car modding. I have this theme going on for the exterior. I liked the way the black trim complemented this shade of blue (cyclone metalic blue :rockon: ). Originally, I really wanted gunmetal rims, and my factory tires were about to blow on me (there's currently only 75k miles on it. yes, this is a '96), but I rushed the purchase :doh: I plan on getting new rims within the year, something black or gunmetal with a polished lip.
The tint is there for 3 reasons:
- Preserve the black/blue theme
- Keep people from seeing inside
- Keep self from melting every time I get in the car during the summer
I need to do something about the rear. I'm thinking either shaving the inner lights, or getting red/clears for the outer.
try to see into that
As for the headlights, My stock ones were starting to develop this haze on them, and frankly, I hate chrome. Those damned stock headlights called out way too much attention, IMO. Compare the old pics of my car to the new ones:

the projectors I have contain the least amount of "chrome" coloring out of any of the mainstream headlights. The as well hold this black/blue theme. In addition, the blackend grille contains a chrome honda symbol, along with the circular lights. Pulling in the wheels, the theme is cuncurrent throughout the exterior. Plus, chicks dig 'em :naughty:
for me, there was 1 main reason for the drop; to remove most of the wheelgap. Since I have a sedan, I like to bring my friends along, and with a 1.5" drop, I can do so. Plus, the springs only cost me $60.
But whats fun about my car is my "budget" system I have in it. It's nothing competition level, but its impressive none the less, save the massive amounts of trunk rattle I have (but I can't hear it in the car, so I don't care

).
I have kenwoods all around. 6 1/2 dualmags are shown. 3-way 6x9s in the back are basic.

These are to get me by for now. I'm still debating what I will do, but it will definatly involve a better brand. But they're still loud. Powered by a Sony Explode amp, which will move to the mids and highs once I get a new amp for the subs.
oh, yeah...
night pics
when I press on the break, the inner tails come on as well, I got the idea from that tokyo racing game on PS2
Well, I guess its art in sound and motion
sorry about the over-explination
