Oh and that's a fine lookin 8 Mike! No wonder you "LUV" it.
Thanks guys, I want to have wheels this spring, I would love any ideas. I am partial to something like to posts before this (painted or gunmetal), my wife likes more bling. I will probably get what I want, but if you saw here pics in the "Major Lack of Girls" posts, you would see my dilemna.
I'm thinkin' 19's, roads aren't always perfect where I am from. Also, I am not sure what you mean by unpainted CF Hood. I want to upgrade to a Seibon or VIS soon too. Also I like the hood pins on bulletproofautomotive.com. Thanks for any tips!!

Well first off, bling usually equals bad. It's a lot harder to make a chrome wheel look good than it is one with just a polished lip. I'm willing to bet you have a better idea of what looks good than she does......so get what you want, otherwise you might regret it. Oh and as for the hood..... these days people buy CF for the "show-off" factor more than the weight difference....they wouldn't DARE think of painting it because then it wouldn't be obvious that it was CF. I personally think CF hoods should be painted, but that's only my opinion, and I know I'm out-numbered here. Oh and one good example of weight reduction vs. show-off..........our driveshafts.

Rebelx, you car is almost just like Konig's one. Same color scheme but different wheels. Looks like the same picture spot too. Not giving you a hard time; the car looks good.

Got a pic of my latest JDM "mod" :



My girlfriend went to Japan to check out the Tokyo Auto Salon and brought me back a bunch of cool stuff. I figure you guys would appreciate this also:

Definitely a cool sticker, but it looks like more of a toolbox decoration than a car mod. Not diggin it. Just my 2 cents.
I've always loved your car though

I use Tech Wax which I think is from Mcquires. I wash it once a week. The car wash hand washes their cars and a lot of high end cars go there.
