Not to be anal, but that's not the JDM OEM EG9 spoiler That's a WW lip spoiler


Anyways, yeah I agree take it easy on this guy. I've talked to him on AIM before and he's a cool guy - just misdirected. At least he's being cool about all this harsh criticism.

guys give it up! seriously. u all gave him the critism that u thought he needed, and so did i...i think he got the point now! u dont like what he's done, so what! there's a lot of things that people dont like about all of ur cars...i think it's good that he's being unique and at least TRYING! and he's creative as hell! it all depends on where u live, the "scene" that u all approve of just isnt everywhere! sorry to burst ur bubbles! it's the same crap w/ u guys all the time... :blah:

let him alone!

and call me a ricer n00b all u want, i dont give a shit! my car's one of a kind, and thats the way i like it. i dont like the stock look at all! but thats just my opinion! :fawk:

i give Kabooki a BIG :thumbup: for taking quite a bit of shiet and still coming back to post. You can do whatever you want to your car bro... just don't go cheap cuz it will look cheap if you ever get serious about modding your car. Altezza's, LED whatevers, windshield banners are cheap fixes to 'stand out.' Thats what every kid with $30 in there pocket does first.... followed by Calvin stickers on the gas cap and flaming seat covers.

You can look clean and still standout without looking really stock.

ya i know... :blah:

Just tring to shine some light. h:

Damn, alot to reply to, um well first of all im here in texas, it still turns heads to have a NICE ricer and NOT because they say look at that wannabe, People LIKE IT HERE, i was drivin around in my bro's ricer for a while when my car was in the shop, his AC dont work so i had my windows down, I saw some girls at the bus stop and (they looked too young) so i didnt pay much attention to them until i heard one shout OMG THAT IS FREAKIN AWESOME. kinda embarrased but it was cool to get reactions like that, another time i was at walmart at 1am and i was driving to the front and saw 3 guys talkin 2 with their backs to me the one facing me got histarical and pointed, i ignored them and just drove a few isles over and parked, when i got out and started walkin to the store, they were running up to ask questions, and give compliments on the car. Another time (mind u i only had the car for 1½ months) i just got a job and was using his car for the daily commute,after my lunch break i was headin back and saw some people in the lot around some dude's old supra talkin, when i drove by and parked a few isles down about 9 people followed me (i kinda felt uneasy about so many people running up to me) but they wanted to know about the car.

So it seems to me people still like this kind of stuff here. I appreciate the criticizm and at this point in time dont make nearly as much muny as i used to, so im gonna have to take it slow for now.

All the mods I have done so far have been liked by me and my friends, and I find it also very creative for some of the things ive done without being ghetto (like using ductape to fix a prob)

Also, these headlights DONT leak, they were normal listed price of $312, but i got them from a friend for only $60, I love the look they give my car.

The read LED lights, well i know alot of people have them, but most of the time they put them on a 86 beatup toyota 4dr, so it looks like crap and they pick a color that just dont match, from what i heard they stopped sellin RED in texas a long time ago due to laws, but i bought these before i bought the car.\

As for a spoiler, i havnt found anything i really like so i was considderin that lip spoiler (kinda nice) or a stock vtec spoiler (the bow thingie) about 2" high. From driving my bro's car, well the spoiler looks good on the car but leaves about %10 vision through back window.

Suspension, well dont know what to do for suspension, kinda like it the way it is, no way in hell am i gonna drop it, my bro's car is so low u cant fit ur foot under it or put ur finger in the wheel well between the tire and fender.

I got a 4dr cuz i do all the driving for my friends when we all go somewhere becuase most only have a 2 seater (i used to have a small truck too but just sold it)

after reading this lengthy reply i have come to two distinct conclusions

1: i will NEVER live where you live

2: you are beyond my help or influence

Good luck with your car....
