Despite our previous argument, i would have to say i like your setup, i have those slipstreams with slicks for the track i think they look sweet. Btw what does your car run??:thumbup:

Arggg those lips have no style. They make the whole front end look soo flat without any curves. Almost like a Mack truckwith the flat front. The OEM looks sooo incredibly cheap. Looks like you took a piece of plastic then molded it into shape to fit the front then screwed it on. It looks like a part that gives a "I added this to my bumper" look. The 99-00 front end is made so well cause you don't have the large mouth like the 96-98 and the fogs have their own seperate ports not like the way you have to install them in the large mouth in the 96-98. That white care with the Volk wheels in the show looks so beautiful in the front. I don't care for the rear lip cause it gives it too much of a plastic look. Sorry but i just hate the 96-98 front end. I am stuck with it unless there is a replica of the 99-00 bumper that can fit on the 98 causeI don't have money to do a whole front end conversion.

Nice ride. Color-match the side skirts and get a nice OEM front lip. Paint those headlights housing's black too. As for that, it's looking awesome!

No i dont have spray and no without the slicks i just bought them and put them on the slips, i had potenza s0-3 polepositions on the two slips and the tracktion sucked so i went ahead and ordered the bfg- g-force drag radial. we'll see what happens. my 60' times blow a$$ so i hope to bring that down to a low to mid 15, and even lower with the purchase of the venom nitrous kit in the future :bigok:
It's my first day.

im definately after a lip soon.. i have so much on the to do list.. bla.... i think a ctr lip for our car is fine... but it is also what your goal is.. mine is simple.. stock yet not.. just enough to be SLIGHTLY differant.. 99% of the parts so far are function over form
the rims are 15's.. slips.. the car is pretty low.. lol i mean it doesn't sit too low of the ground but the gap is tighter than a *********************.. yeah anyway they are as close as can be WITHOUT rubbing.. one thing i really like is low. in fact i honestly wish i could go lower.. but it would be too annoying where i live
this is so early in the game.. i have so much to do over the winter.. it is staying juiced and single cam.. but internals are also in the very near future (courtesy of built hatch **if any of you remember him**)
i dunno what next.. i am also thinking subtle smoke tint.. very soon
thoughts on my car and tint??? anyone???

venom is cool but overated, unless you are in huge high HP race car conditions... NOS and NX get my vote
