nice... those rims look nice on a SSM. I see you have a black painted hood too. Lower the rear a bit and it will flow nicer.

yea i got really lucky with those rims. i'll get more pictures up with a real camera tommorow so you all can get a better look. the hood is carbon fiber. the original hood got really damage in an accident and cost way too much to fix or replace on my student salary. i'm thinking of getting the car paint diamond black as well as a new oem hood when i have the dough.

Please tell me you are joking. 75 mpg and 275 hp for under $30?? A hybrid doesnt even get 75 mpg......and nothing you buy will add 275 hp. Its a scam.

He stated in the post above yours, its carbon fiber.

Killer deal! Looks good but since you have F2's, lower it more. Well just the back would be good.

yup i'm planning on going lower. my driveway is a real bust though because it is very steep. i already have to go very sideway.


Silvernight: don't get that chip, its a scam and would probably mess up ur car. if you really want more house power try getting a AEM cold air system.

the 99 lip extends the bumper further down. (it bolts to the bottom of the bumper..

the 02-03 lip caps over an inch or two of bumper..
