Car is clean, even though our new Empire plates take away from white cars in my opinion. Have you considered painting the sides of the hood so that it matches the grille? Leaving only the center CF from the grille to the windshield... just an idea I had...

**Jalebate** · 10-20-2011

hm that'd be interesting, thanks for the idea.

Looks like thy did a nice job. Have you considered getting the front lowered?

**Jalebate** · 10-21-2011

I would loveeee to lower it, but my bumper is so low as it is. It would just turn into a snow plow if I made it any lower lol. It is probably 3-4 inches lower than the OEM bumper. The wheel gap is killing me though

I f I knew I was going to be replacing my bumper I would have got bigger rims/wheels.

**superbad** · 10-22-2011

just my opinion but a nicer set of wheels will make it look amazing

**Unclear_Motives** · 10-22-2011

Well I have a list of things I want to do in the near future in my first post. And yeah the rims are nothing too special but they are going to be staying on for a while.

**Unclear_Motives** · 10-22-2011

Lol...oh yeah.

If recommend a roof spoiler to add a bit of styling to the rear.

Also recommend that you coombe out too show it off tomorrow at heckshire state park

.

Tomorrow is island import day...and there's a caravan starting at exit 13 on southern state pkwy...at 1p.

I'll be at the park tomorrow for sure. It is from 12-5 right?

**Jalebate** · 10-23-2011

What intake should I get? Once these fogs sell I am going to be purchasing an intake for my car. I am weary of getting a CAI because the water puddles up very deep over by my house when it rains. A link with your vote would be awesome, thanks.

**Unclear_Motives** · 10-24-2011

It was awesome to meet up with you guys, and this car looks like it was VERY well handled at the body shop.
