1. i dont have the tinted headlights anymore. i took that off.
Yet you still have the illegal and dangerous blacked out tail lights.


3. i put the other wiper back on earlier today as i finally had time to do it.
Really? Doesn't look like it to me. I still only see one:


2. drifters stretch tires. i've seen cars going over 100 on the track on stretched tires....and they haven't unseated. pretty sure if i go 30 to school and back, and the occasional highway drive to a meet is less stressful than that.
So by your logic everybody should be driving on slicks because that's what racecars use.

First, you're not drifter.
Second, drifters drive on closed tracks. You drive on public roads with potholes.
Third, drifters use special tries, not regular passenger car tires like you.
Fourth, drifters have cars with roll cages, safety equipment and wear helmets. None of which you or anyone else on the public roads do.

Your logic (much like your taste) is flawed.


4. i have yet to see your cars thread.
I'm not so narcissistic to feel the need to have a thread dedicated exclusively to my car. I posted plenty of pictures of my cars. Try searching.

got my tire mounted. apparently the rest of my tires were 205/45/16s and not 195/45/16s. apparently im just blind/stupid. whatever, its got full tread and it drives.

i also converted my tails to full LED. actually partway. the running lights in the top portion are Type 921, Ultra White, with 9 SMD LED's. the brake lights are like 10-12 Red Wide Angle LED's.

i bought Blue Turn Signal LED's, but i dislike how they look. I wanted another set of Ultra Whites, but i saw they had the blue ones when i was at Pepboy's and got excited; i thought it they would be bright, but they aren't bright at all. so i'm going to return them and get Ultra Whites, like i wanted to in the first place. ill post pictures once i get the white ones.

lolol helladope. thanks.

im still looking into going lower. i might call Megan Racing, and order a higher spring rate of their coils and retrofit them onto the racelands. until the dampers give out. lol. then ill probably work on creating custom raised strut mounts, and get the megan dampers/struts.

.....but for right now, im going to fix my tails, and trunk, get my fitment where i want it, and leave it until i graduate most likely. unless i get a job on the side or something.

so im going to be polishing my headlights and lightening the taillights, and im thinking about re-wrapping the fabric on the door panels and such in a grey houndstooth, or grey plaid. its a cheap mod that i can do while saving up for spacers/fender rolling. any thoughts??

Do you have the GLS or GT interior? The door panels are different. On the leather-insert GT, you can remove the fabric panel and re-wrap it. The GLS fabric is glued directly to the plastic. It's not as simple as just doing a rewrap and putting the panel back on.

pretty sure he has the GLS interior.

The door panels are easy enough to remove, about 4 years ago when my mom had my car the repair shop did some really shoddy work. It was missing two screws from the bottom of the door, and the red light at the bottom of the door was not working. So in about 20 minutes of removing crap I took off the door panel, reconnected the door light, correctly positioned the door card properly(was crooked and crammed on by the repair shop, bad fitment) and put two wood screws in the door to hold it on. I did that before I read any DIY's too. :)

Pretty sure you will do fine with the doors(except the glue). Good luck man.
