Looks like you're off to a decent start! I see tint, Type-S A-Spec and wheels.

As for your pictures, use a hosting site like Flickr or Imgur and then paste the image link here.

Wheels still look good at stock height. Any poke in the rear?

I would have never imagined that if you run these rims at stock height, they get ruined by rock chips. God damn poke

Looks good minus the exhaust sticking way past the rear bumper. Any plans to finish the A-Spec kit?

lol ride height has nothing to do with the rock chips

Is it on the lip of the rim by chance?

Memeber Wacker had the same problem, he ended up sanding the lip down to look like a machined lip and it looked really good.

Make sure all the pipe connections are inserted all the way in from the cat (or j pipe) all the way back.

CBP is such a versatile color when it comes to wheels. I think all colors look good on it.

Love how they look like a normal blacked out headlight until you get close and see its actually carbon fiber.
