OK here we go......new and updated pics of my car.....what you guys think??
www.imageevent.com/up2dasky/clw19s
The things that are different is that i got my side skirts and rear lip painted to match the car. Since its a 97, it was that ugly black. I also put on a WW front lip. Switched out grilles with Katie and added the white "A" emblem to match the one on the trunk. Also got my HID's in there, which i posted some pics of earlier. I noticed in my other thread that people were askin me about the gauges. I also switched my mirror tint to straight black.
The ones in the gauge pillar are a/f and voltmeter. Nothin special, got em for a really good deal, so i put em in there, since they match my reverse indiglo dash kit.
Tell me what you think? should i change anything? what should i do next??

doog- no i had them done at a bodyshop. they were the black plastic. theres a lot of work involved, you have to sand them down, and then primer the shit out of them. The shop told me they primered mine 4 times, because bumps kept appearing. Looks great now

I'd get the 98+ wood trim and drop the back a little more (if at all possible).
Your car looks pretty sick the way it is. Those are just 2 things I'd get done. Good luck!

Katana - You have the same springs I do but yours looks like it sits a little lower in the front... how much time did it take to settle and by how much? Also what size are your tires?
BTW - car looks amazing!

Hey, what is the rest of your car tinted of the windsheild is 35%? I've got to decide what to do mine. 35% is the limit around here, but I don't want it too light either.
