Mini Meet with artbran and young03

Art, Marcus, and I got together today and shot a few pictures. I think Art has some too. BTW, Art, I removed the name and phone number on the trucks - I didn't know if you wanted those up on the net or not. I can put them back the way they were if you want.


Marcus's car





Art seafoamed my car for me, crappy pic of the smoke


Ugh I'm still 4x4... not for long.






Marcus and Art are great guys... Art's 2nd gen is gorgeous especially in person and Marcus's car is coming along great. I didn't get a shot of the front end but the smoked corners really look good with the red paint.

That was the funniest thing I've read on here in a LONG time. If it works out, I'll have a set of Sportlines on there before the meet in June.

thanks guys. BTW, Marcus, sorry for rushing you but i needed to get to this one guys house to pick something up for my dad... otherwise we would have gotten your bumper perfect.

I'll get the 3 or 4 pics that I have up tomorrow when I get my camera out of my car.. Kinda dont feel like getting it right now.

and LOL at the 4X4 comments.. I have a feeling that these 2 cars will be dropped very soon...

You guys were right. The first gen side of this forum is much "nicer" than the guys over at the second gen side. I know by saying that, that I will be shunned from there LOL but oh well. I guess its all because I went from a first gen to a second gen or something but either way, thanks guys. But you have to give credit to the guys i met with today. Their cars are looking great too. They are modding them with class and not rice. The one thing that will make these 2 stand out more is a drop of some kind. Its all a matter of time and money.

I mean hell, I wanted to drop my teal first gen when I put on my painted stockies but never got around to it. Now she has a new owner and he looks to be taking good care of her so yeah...

I'm looking at getting these wheels, 17s, after the drop. I really like my wheels, but they're still 16s and they started to pit already. n00b question, will bigger wheels make a modest drop look more extreme or a modest drop look like stock? Also with thicker tires (45-55), will it raise the car or bring the tire closer to the fender? Should I go with something thinner (35-40)?



They're the Evo 5 style, but they don't make the Evo 5 in black unfortunately, so this is the next best thing IMO.

Doubleshot bought subbuzz's white lightning.

As for the tires, bigger rims with moderately thin or stretched tires would look good with a drop, as it would fill the wheel well more, but it will raise the car a little higher being that you went from 16's to 17's. If u have less tire on the 17's than u did on the 16's the difference between the two will be less.

Or, I could change the theme of the car and go with these for $10 more per wheel... I saw them on a new Civic in white and they looked really good.



I just don't know if I can go away from the white and black theme.
