figured while i still have the spoiler off i would take some pics and let you guys see what i've been enjoying.

just picked up my new new goodness from painters today but i'll share that stuff when its all on the car. but for now tell me what ya think.

OH yea i forgot i have my new front bumper on there with HD lip thanx to Caj, little winter spin out caused me to hit a stop sign and put a 4 inch gash in the front of the old one.









i know my car needs a wash but its been raining for almost 2 weeks straight and its supposed to keep rainin into next week so i've been putting it off.

just an honest opinion, but it is really ugly w/o the spoiler and you need a body kit. the angled muffler just doesnt look right with the obvious cut out for the bumper off to the side of it. other then that, rims and tint would really make it look better.

^^^ and you obviously don't know that he has a Apexi' exhaust which is made that way to lessen one bend which in turn allows a straighter exhaust flow.

^^^ oh i know the exhaust, and love the angled look i just dont like how the cut out in the bumper throws off the flow of the rear bumper with that exhaust. im not bagging on the car at all just giving suggestions as he asked for them. just noticed something, whats up with the rear plate? how did it get that bent lol.

optimo...what did you use to cover up the holes for the bolts...

oh yeah...i love the tib without the spoiler...the only ones that look good are the type-r and the shark if you have a body kit with it imo

for the record body kits are rice. i wouldnt ever put one on my tib because i've never seen a tib where a bodykit looked good. i'm not a teenager so i dont need a fast and furious bodykit. im just gonna keep it clean clean clean and OEM.


what i do have planned for the body is KDM type-r wing and KDM turby sides. both of which i picked up from bodyshop yesterday. so when it stops rainin i'll put them on.


to cover the holes i used nylon plugs from home depot/lowes. i just got a variety pack that had all diffrent sizes and i just poped em in place. when i take my front bumper in to get paint matched i'm gonna have him spray the plugs so i can either be spoilerless or use my USDM or KDM spoilers depending on what ever mood i'm in.

-Tint
-Rims
-Drop it an inch

Other wise looking sleek, the wing and skirts will look great, top it off with the now available (somewhat) GT Tech lip, and your looking clean. KDM STYLE.

In that one picture it looks like your sportin the flag on your antenna.
