Other than the overly aggressive back bumper, I like the look. All you need is a drop and some wide 18's, and you'll be set.

Thanx man, yeah i gatta do something about that wheel gap, but there is now way i can drop because the front is already too low, when i went to a meet not to long ago, Erty, has a 4th gen with a stillen lip, and a drop, and my car was still lower. so i dont know what to do. hopefully when i get the rims it will look a bit better.

You could always save up for airbags after you get the rims.

They are using a similar muffler to the one you see on Z28's or Iroc's.....Its a single inlet pipe, that then branches out into a dual setup. Thats really interesting how they used that design. I would like to hear a clip of how it sounds. Flowmaster usually makes the sound very throaty.....

Why don't you just get 17's and lower the car. With bigger rims (depending on the rim) you get weight and plus the tires are thinner. Plus I read the bigger you go the worse it is on the brakes n suspension, it was in the AutoTimes section here in Chicago. Anyway that's my opinion. It's your dinero!

I think it looks good in overall......especially the duel exhaust. I know the rims well do the big part but I'll say u should def lower ur car but like u said the front sits already low if I was u I woudn't know wut to do either......but ur Max looks nice........I wanted to get the duel exhaust set up but it's almost impossible with Stillen rear........I wanna see ur Max in person, u should try to come to June 5th Johnson Park meet........

Im thinking about it, imight actually go.

Maxii: I think that 17's look too small w/that kit, and i cant lower the car. but i still have a while to decide on rims.

guapsnaman: Yeah thats what i thought also at first that it kinda looks like a skyline.

you seem to have alot of money to spend so much on that exhaust.

i like the way your car looks.
as mentioned above black or cf eyelids would help off set all the white, as well as some gunmetal w/ chrome lip 18-19s.

Yeah i am definitely going w/gunmetal rims, w/a chrome lip, and maybe i wil consider painting the eyelids black.

Thanx, makavelisk

Uh oh... I just had my car lowered this weekend So, uhh, anyone want to buy an Octane front bumper from me? The only thing I've done to it is install the grille mesh. Yes, I'm serious.

Even a minor drop with springs like my Maxspeeds would have your front only 3" from the ground.

it looks aight. That front sits pretty LOW. If i was you i would get some nice sporty 20" rims. I dont even think 19's would be enough for that big *** kit. Rims first then see how much you need to drop after you get the rims.
