Arrow New Pics of Whitey's whitey!

I took a few pictures while out on a stroll through the mountains yesterday. I knew the first pictures I posted of my car were horrible so I figured I'd do better. Oh and I already know what you're going to tell me...... "Looks good, just needs to be lower." WELL...... I know it needs to be lower and I'd love to lower it, but I live in Tennessee where half the driveways are at 45 degree angles........hell, half the businesses around here have steep entrances, it's hard to get into Taco Bell without scraping something. Anyway I think I'm done with exterior modifications.....next on my list is the MazdaSpeed cold air intake.

It shouldn't be!!! I swear they put businesses in some stupid places around here. Maybe the steep driveways explain why all the little Civics and such run around with cracked fiberglass front bumpers. Hell you'd have to have a Sentra to get up into half of these places!

Thanks to everyone for the compliments though!

Whitey,

Looking good. Can you remind us of specs on body kit, tint grade, wheel model/size? I assume Mazdaspeed auth kit, Mazdaspeed Wing. Would be good to know!

I also agree the stakes should go when you have that much else going on but beautiful job.

BTW, love the deep dish on the rims. Adds the right amount of BLING to a pure racing look...

Well the body kit is the auth. JDM kit that I bought from a dealer in Japan through JapanParts.com, the tint is 15% (I wanted 5% but it's hard to see out of the back of this car as it is!), and the wheels are 19x8 Axis Mods with the "Maxis Lip"..... the lip just means that the spokes are shaped differently on the rear wheels to give them a staggered look while keeping the same tire size so I can still rotate my tires.

Well first off, why do you hate me? That's a harsh statement and I hope I haven't done anything to offend you. I love this forum and hope to get along with everyone, especially since I'm trying to take part in more of the meets and such. I apologize if it was something I've said. Anyway, as I mentioned above the wheels are 19x8's, the tires are 235x40xR19's, and I have no clue about the offset because it was over a year ago when I bought them........one of these days I'll look on the back of the wheel and find out.

He probably meant it in an envious way. Very clean white car. Rims look really good.
