Default cleaning up!!!

does this sound like a good idea??? I have an option of painting my car and going back to stock body with type R lips and Si wheels. I have offers for my kit and a trade for Si rims with cash would this be wise ??? Im thinkin this will be a clean but nice look........ opinions on my thoughts? thanks

i think it would look sweet man. ive never really been a fan of the buddy club bumper so i think stock would look . as far as the wheels go i like the ones u got but Si wheels would look nice too. keep up posted on wat u do

Honestly don't know what to tell you. To me, I'd think it'd be a waste to let go of all the stuff that you've done to the car just to have a "JDM" look.

Were you offered by someone to purchase your kit and whatnot and just decided to respray the car? Or did you just decide that you didn't want the kit anymore and go for the "clean" look?

Not trying to bash or anything, it just seems like a waste of time and money to go through the trouble you're going through considering you've invested quite a bit in your car.

I actually like the way your car currently looks. It's cleanly executed but different from what I usually see. If you really want to go for the more stock look (and peoples' tastes change so I can understand) and the cash you're being offered is good, I'd say to go ahead and make the change. The CTR stuff is neat looking and I think that kit resale value isn't all that great so such deals might be few and far between. In any case, good luck with your decision and keep us posted.

Oh, and if you take new pics, make sure your camera's white balance is set correctly next time. h:

I like your ride the way it is right now. But like others have said once you have the oppurtunity to sell and its worth it, go for it.:thumbup:
