You cut the springs? I've always heard that's one of the worst things you can do.

Well, coilovers are the way to go. From what everone on this site has said, Tein SS are the way to go. I plan on getting these when I get the money.

Very nice ABP TL-S.. Get the Zenetti Fives when your ready for rims/tires. I've seen both up close IRL and they Zenettis are five times better looking..

I was thinkin of mugen truck lid what do u peepz think?? what kind of rims do u peepz suggest aswell?

I think Mugen lip looks best, then WW lip. Rims - 5 spoke 19"s look best IMO, i have 6 spoke 18"s with a lip, not my favorite but my bro got em when he had the car.

O yea headlight clearing, one of the worst experiences of my life. Actually the whole process wasn't too bad but it was so damn nerveracking, especially the thought of incorrectly sealing the lights, but one of my fav mods by FAR.

yea im trying to find the mugen wing but i cant seem to find it anywhere... n yea the headlight clearing was a nice project it wasnt hard it was just the fact of gettin it done right n not messing anything up... i sealed my lights good but lately ive been seeing some mist in them, i think its cause of the cold weather we have been having up here in jersey lately... maybe when it warms up i might take them out and do it again....
