You're car is beautiful. Of course, I'm bias towards white XD's, ha. Those are my most favorite wheels available as well. Suggestions - either want the headlights white to match, or get the Chrome ones and get a spoiler. Keep up the good work out there in California.

im digging that, but my question is: what are you going to do about the grill? I hate chrome, and I hate mesh, so that vittually leaves me grill-less.
sweet xd btw

Tricked is doing the grill for me. The chrome will be painted body color, and the mesh will be black, so it won't look as "mesh-y." (More like ilanpro's black mesh grill)

I also try to get rid of as much chrome as possible

Drop is about 1.5"

I got the struts from my buddy's shop in Glendale, CA.

Nice, can't wait to see the grill on it. How do those Mercedes horns sound/fit? Engine bay pics would be nice too. Keep up the good work!

The mercedes horns are loud! They're the same exact horns that are in my benz, but for some reason they sound a lot louder on the hyundai. Fittment is fine, they're both attatched using the stock horn mount bolt and you just need to wire a jumper to power both horns. I'll try and get a sound clip this weekend and post it.

As for engie bay pics - I will take them when I clean out the engine bay. It's so dirty that it would be pretty embarrasing to post pics of it now. lol

The bronze FN01R-C's look amazing!! I'm trying to decide between matte black and bronze wheels, I was leaning towards black, but now I can really see how great bronze looks.

Yeah I like the bronze wheels too. They are really sweet!

Nice choice of wheels. I was planning on getting those, but they didn't have them in our size when I bought my wheels so I bought some that look just like them. Mine are Maxxim Oxygenes. I wish I had the quality of the 5ziggens though. What size tire is that?

Nice car, I am not too keen on the rims. It throws the clean look of the car....did you think of maybe black rims to tie it in with the lights?

carbonman

· #18 · Jun 9, 2004

The rims are unique, I like black rims (have em now) but I think he should keep em

Keep the bronze wheels, it looks great just the way it is.

Yeah, I like the bronze on white. It goes nicely with the tan interior and since the front headlights look kind of like a Skyline's I was kind of just going with that look. :0)

Thanks for all the kind words everyone!
