Okay everyone start flaming me, but how do you plan on ever getting into a driveway? Raise it just a little. Otherwise, car looks great.

Cars tight, and I must say, that has got to be one of the clearest MPGs I have ever seen. Makes me sad that my body kit fell through. I'm lookin again though.

Hey brian, i've been following your car's mod-life for a long time now, seen it through many mods, i like your site, thats how I found out about your car. Looks damn good!
I think the kit is a perfet fit and it evens out the car very nicely, nice choice of rims too.

how much for the paint job?

Cost, I got a good deal through Skimax, but I won't announce price online.

Springs: Modified ST's. The drop is 3-3.5". I parked it next to a stock one yesterday and it's definately a lot lower.

These aren't tantrums, these are 5zigen GT8's. Tantrums have 7 spokes, these have 8's.

Video's. IM me on AIM: GSrBrian and I'll send over some other ones. I don't want to post urls because too many ppl at once will destroy my bandwith, since one mpg is 15 megs.

NICE!

However your wheels look like they aren't flush with the outside of the fender giving it that HONDA CIVIC *SMALL* wheel look. I love the wheels and know that they are 17's, but maybe the offset wasn't enough? Maybe I am on crack

Looks VERy nice other than that though!

that and the fact that Konig Tantrums are cheap knockoffs

Your drop looks the same as mine.. i would say you have a 2.5 inch drop.. not 3

SprintMax I think it's closer to 3". You're one 18's so it'll look like your gap is less than an equally lowered 17" car.

Yes the right rear valence is tilted a bit. Unfortunately my Greddy somewhat warped the right section of my bumper. Thus, the fit isn't right so it was put on best it could be and drilled from the inside. Doesn't bother me that much.

Brian...we've got the same car. I know where I need to go now . My Max has the mudflaps and I really like them, ie what they do. Can you put the whole kit on with the muds? Wonder how it would look? Maybe I'll only go with the lip. Looks great! Still thinking about shaving the rear. Nice rims. Keep going and keep posting.

Cheers, Rob

Thanks Rob. I'm about 99% positive you CANNOT keep the mudflaps. When installing mine the shop had to remove these small plastic pieces that are about where the mudflaps would be.

Brian, too bad. I think the muds really keep the sides of my car cleaner. Hmmmm, maybe I'll go with just the lip BUT that's all in the future. Next mods will be H&Rs and Tokicos or a Stillen RSB, what ever is cheaper. Guess that means the RSB. I'll have to save my pennies for that one Know anyone that's selling one cheap, I'm interested. Yeah, I know about Phoung and there's one on eBay but they're still about Stillen's price. As I said, I'm saving my pennies. With my oldest going to college in the fall and 3 more in line there are many competing priorities.

Cheers

Thats an idea BUT I still want it to look good. Might stay with just the front lip. We'll see.
