Phatboislim's Progress Thread

I believe i've finally made enough 'progress' to where i can make a 'progress thread' dedicated to it

Stock:

then i got rid of my torn up shift **** in favor of the AE shift ****

then i figured...time to do some light changes...

so i bought my 6k HIDs and yellow bulbs for the fogs

then i found some AE headlights, courtesy of 01AEmaxine, i believe his SN is and installed those and viola..hotness, in the lighting dept, is achieved

during all that time i was/am accumulating parts, all the exhaust components are obtained...then i obtained my tokico illuminas for $350 shipped and my dropzone springs for technically $40...so all under $400 i got my suspension, then this pass saturday, 11/15/08, after 13hrs and all the problems that could happened happened...the Maxipad is starting to turn into my Sexipad..

Very nice! How come you have only the front mud guards? lol

You should get a pair for the back and paint them body color.

And also, what are you next mods?

i have a make shift intake from my brothers 4th gen, and the only other mod i'm doing 'go fast' wise, besides replacing the intake w/ a real one is ypipe back...

stereo, eventually, rims...not sure, but i want at least 19s, more than likely some polished 20s...but i cant fill u in on my final thoughts for my wheels though

Smoked side markers don't look good on a white car , my opinion. Get clears or stay with the stock .

I have some clears that I try to smoke. Not sure if you can take the paint off with some thinner .
