CF is trashy?... blasphemy! jp, watever floats your boat. I'm in rside too!

Ok, see i was told that you can't paint cf. But if you can I will consider it.

OOFROST: where at in Riverside? You think I would have seen that beautiful car before.

**I think I need to clarify... I don't think it looks "trashy" per say but when I see them I think of the people that have POS cars that are a million different colors because the can't afford to paint it. I hope that helps you understand what I mean.

I think you can paint CF?

I don't like how black CF hoods look though...

ok, yes, you can paint CF, and if you said you wanted to get a turbo kit, then save the money you are spending on the AEM CAI b/c you wont be using it. and dont get a header either, b/c you will have to get a turbo manifold so that will be more wasted money. yeah, it may take you longer to save up the cash, but you will be wasting money if you get I/H and try to sell it later.

Should I get 17 or 18's? And should I get white for a sporty look or chrome (not blind you to death chrome) for a classy look?

Here is my mind set I want it for show but I want the power to kick ass if needed.

How about the fenders are they the same as the coupe?
I didn't know that could be done. That would be a good look.
A sedan w/a coupe bumper, very sporty.
Everytime I come to the forum I see somthing else I would like to do to my car. Only if money wasn't a problem

I found some prices for parts:
(Bumper)http://www.autobodypartsonline.com/c...32103143343.a9
(Hood)http://www.autobodypartsonline.com/c...32103143343.a9
(Grill)http://www.autobodypartsonline.com/c...32103143343.a9

well, I was under the impression that you wouldn't need coupe fenders...

I'm not saying you need them, I was wondering if they were needed.

Didn't you see his car in WRC this past year?





























Yes, I wasted 5 minutes of my life on that.


It's stock height, it's the optical illusion of large wheels without a drop.
I remember him saying he wants to lower it but I guess his dad bought the car and doesn't want him to. Hopefully his dad will come around haha.
