...just imagine mine being lower with better fitting VS-XX. I'm not saying this is terrible, but I just don't like the combination of chrome/polished wheels with Kouki aero. Matte/Concave wheels is best in my opinion. I love my VS-XX too much to let them go. Besides, I've always wanted to run Chuki sides on this specific S13. So, it's not changing no matter what anybody says. |

why is it so hard for people to understand that everyone has their own tastes and some of us are actually determined to see our vision realized and dont care what the rest of the crowd is doing or thinks?

Hey for those thinking of getting a replica lip just to warm you guys I ordered a lip from modiride.com and well let me just say this company was a mess to deal with. I wouldn't recomend ordering things from them unless you can pickit up. It took over month due to bad communication on there part about shipping charges for them to finaly ship my lip.

yeah everyone has there own style and this is mine but im not done yet i was thinking of getting the wheels painted gold to see how that combo goes and slamming the back alot more with a maybe 255/35 tire compared to the 275/35 im running and maybe getting a vented hood but just havent had time, but yeah why jump on a bandwagon just make your car the way you want it Last edited by biggie180sx; 07-31-2009 at 04:11 AM.. |

Better put a disclaimer - TO those that might take everything I say 100% seriously, I was joking about Crimson, so if you're upset, chill out. I'm kidding.
That red one up there looks pretty rad. Red 180s look so cool.

I like your car a lot, but it's definitely not for me. Everybody has their own tastes. Instead of trying to replicate something, do whatever YOU like best. Don't build a car in a certain style just because everybody's telling you to do so. For the longest time, I LOVED Chuki fronts with aftermarket lips. Once I finally decided what I wanted to run as sides/rear, the front didn't match any of those at all. It's one of the reasons why I went Kouki. Plus, I love OEM stuff. I'm anti-fiberglass. |

No you are wrong.
They MUST be built the same in order to be "correct" :weird face here: lol

my goal when i built this car was to get to look like that black one with white TE-37s but after starting it i kinda wanted the more flashy 18o so idk what do you guys think about the gold vs-xx idea? |
