My Ride

For now, I am posting pictures of my car when it was stock. I will be washing my car tomorrow, so I will be posting updated pictures of my car.

i was wondering why you were posting pics of a stock car. i see why now, kinda like a before and after thread.

looks good. you should finish it off with the MS spoiler too though. also some nice wheels.

Haha, don't have enough $$. The MS spoiler is too played out. I'm looking for a spoiler that is unique. In terms of wheels, I first need to save up some cash, then I'll be looking for rims. I think mesh wheels look so sexy on a black 8.

Yeah, I was going to get a clear bra. But, I figured that even with a clear bra, I was going to have nicks here and there since it's a daily driver.

Really clean, I really like it!

One thing about the MS kit though, I've never liked the rear.

Yeah, some people don't like the rear.

Also, props to my friend Dan Hong (iamdanomite) for the installations. The man knows a lot about cars.

looks very nice! in order to get away without getting new rims, for now, just get black lug nuts. it looks much better, thats what I do with my stock wheels when going to the track.

I'd rather just save up for rims. I really like the Volk lug nuts too.

Clear bra would be worth getting. I've kept my front off for 5 months waiting to find time to get it clear bra'd. My car is a daily driver as well, but it's so worth it not having to repaint every 6 months.

Yeah, I understand what you mean. I wonder how much it would be to get a clear bra installed.
