I want some pointers,
my car is green with tan leather Type-S 2002
i want to start doing some Apperance mods to my car but dont know where to start, i Have ALOT of dents and dings on my car from parking in certian spots, not too many people notice em but i do and they irritate the hell outta me, someone hit my car with something and i have a tear in the Front passenger side of my fender (i think you all know where that is, if not ill take pics)

i Dont make too much money but i'm ready for a new look can i get some pointers on what to do with my car, i was thinking crome wheels but i think not cause they'll be too heavy, i was thinkin a body kit but not too sure which one looks the best, i was also thinking about dropping it because other than a system my car is stock and i painted the valve cover but i need some pointers on where to get things for a good price and Good quality stuff, hope this thread is enough info for the ones that chime in to help me out and THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!

lower it, get a lip kit (i prefer the wings west), and get some decent wheels, anything but chrome though

sbuswell

platinum tints all around, make the TL look pimp!

Cant see the pic, gotta love the little red x's. but if you are wanting to fix the look, first off would be to get that tear you talked about fixed and get the dents and dings fixed, and a good over all detail, even if you do it yourself, that I am sure will make you feel better about the car. From there I would say tints first, then look at body kits or lowering. I personally think that the Type S wheels look good with the car, but that is just my opinion.

TEIN Coilovers-------EBAY
WW Kit (Discontinued, but can still find it)------Andysautosport.com
Wheels: Your choice, but like someone mentioned (anything but chrome) On a car that's green, I would say go for silver and get the right offset and right tires.
Clear the headlights
Debadge it

DONE

everyone here is gunna have a different opinions.....cause i like chrome!
the car has chrome trim all over it! but u do have a type-s so u already have nice rims
i'd go with--
-tints(%20)
-debadge
-mesh grille (theres a diy on here somewhere)
-drop
-clear n black-out headlights

sorry guys if you cannot see my pic then click HERE!


and how low should i drop it, i am not a slow driver i do drive like i stole my car, bt i love the way a low car looks,,,, sexy! but how low and whats REALLY BETTER coilovers, springs i was lookin at the TEIN springs 2.1 in the front 1.8 in the back i belive and when i lower the car what do i do to make sure the alignment always stays good? should i buy a strut bar


thanks for the ideas guys im gonna start looking for some tint, i kind of like BLACK tint, but i dunno how platinum would look anyone got any pics? on a GREEN TL? i dont want crome anymore cause they are too expensive, and they are easy to mess up (dont want no problems) cause i drive fast my car is already noticably slower after installing my system (and after those two tranny swaps) and i dont want it to be any slower than it is i wana make it faster. but ill stick to the apperance first!

First things first, I say get the dents and tear repaired. Body kits, rims, or dirt does not matter, your car will look shitty with dents and dings everywhere, believe me, I know.

After that, I say get lowered or the kit. It really changes the look of the car and the WW or the OEM kits make the car look really agressive. And I've seen you drive before so invest in some suspension mods like sways. You'll really appreciate the decrease in body roll, not a huge investment but well worth it in my opinion.

As far as rims go, if you like chrome, get it. Just don't get anything that does not fit the car. There is a blue TL-S in south philly that has some ridiculous 20's that look hideous on it.

Oh and clear the headlights. Do them in any order you please or in my case, allowed by budget. Lack-a-fund-a-mosis...its a contagious disease I tell ya. But def get the dents and tear fixed first.
