looks good... and to reply to your other thread in here, blackhouse and blacked out corners would probably look pretty sweet...

Fixed pics for ya, looks good man, too many colors going on though, gold emblems, gold paint, and gunmetal rims.

Need a drop and figure out a color scheme, good start though, if you're blackhousing, do smoked corners, or stick with the amber

Ah, hard to see cuz of the light, black looks good there's just a glare I was having trouble seen, I would think about debadging the back emblems and maybe painting the gold acura A's black, just a thought. As for dropping, you can do it from $300-1200 it all depends on what you're looking for.

Look into Tein Basics, they are the shock and spring they start around $650

https://acurazine.com/forums/sponsored-sales-group-buys-10/tein-basic-super-street-ss-p-coilover-s-tech-high-tech-spring-sale-334052/

https://acurazine.com/forums/sponsored-sales-group-buys-10/tein-sales-heeltoe-automotive-acurazines-most-popular-tein-sale-thread-312176/

PM either of those guys if you're interested in tein basics or any coils, I believe excellerate also sells ksports another good option for a little bit more money that comes with adjustable struts

Oh, I've seen $3000-10000 coilovers, cocoa and I were checking out a $10K set a while back, I'm just saying $1200 will buy you Tein SS-P's which is one of the best coilovers you can buy for our cars, I've seen them go for 2 grand, wholesale you can get them for cheaper, a vendor sells them on this site for about 1200

If you get decent coilovers (not sleeves), all you need is the coil itself (and sometimes a camber kit)

If you get springs, you'll need new shocks too.

like chris said, i think you need to work on a color scheme, and possibly do a full debage of the tunk. but it does look good so far, and you definatly need a drop, those 19's look tiny with all that wheelgap

Looks great man! Lovin the wheels! :thumsup: I would totaly debadge though. Possibly blackhouse and either blackhoused clear corners or smoked clear corners. I'd even paint the (A) emblems black. Oh, and a DROP would be SWEET.

Ohh, and take off that front plate! Taking off the front plate is probably one of the best and cheapest thing you could do to the front. Most risky but if you notice alot of people with out front plates, take it off!

Car needs a drop, but looks good so far. Keep the ambers and blackhouse the headlights. Go with black emblems.

How much are fix-it tickets? The only reason why I roll with no front plate is because #1 it looks ALOT cleaner and sharper, and #2 my dad has never put on front plates on his Porche or 3000GT since 94'. I figgure, I could always blame him for beign a bad role model if I do get a ticket.
