Well figure ill get one of these rolling, updates will be slow cause I never have money for mods not really but i lost a lot of money getting rid of my genesis with all the stuff it had on it so little stuff here and there and hopefully by Christmas this car will sit how i want it to. Any way on to the pics

Blacked the emblems on the rear

Nokya 2500k DRL bulbs stolen from my wifes 8thgen accord.

Got some wheels from a member on here couldn't pass up the deal was going to wait but the price was right for me any way there linea corse Dyna 19x8.5 38 offset

Some had some curbage working on the lips over the next couple of weeks did one yesterday and here is how it came out.
Before

after

Test fitted the wheels to see how the clearance was knew it would fit but figured might as well check it out anyway.

allright update time i ordered TPMS sensors and hub centric rings got those ordered some muteki lugs and the asshole isn't going to ship and saying he wont give money back so dealing with paypal right now. so i still need to score some lugs i just orders some 245/40/19 Falken tires im not going to lower it much ive been there done that probably leaning toward h&r springs i like there drop so hopefully a couple weeks maybe after i go to vegas there will be an update. oh i also took off pinstripe and what i thought was true there are lines were it was i need the paint to be buffed maybe that will kill it a little. I also plastidipped the crome top part on the grill. stay tune for pics of wheels installed

looking good man, i like the color with the vortex blue! a bit too narrow for my taste, but still look good. a drop will definitely set it off nicely

i third the removing of the plasti, i personally don't like just the blade of the grill plastidipped, and the silver goes with the wheels
