i dislike the rims, grill, and mis matched tint.

everything else looks great and it's screaming for a bodykit.

edit: oh and black tails too.

the rims would probably look better with the kit.....the tint is probably what is legal in his state...maybe? who knows...my tint is a little mismatched, but not terribly bad ...25/35

Honestly I did not expect this thread to get this much comments. Thanks for the good and the bad.

Later down the road the car will see a lip kit from stillen. The front windows do not have any tint on them right now due to state laws but i will get them tinted either 35% or 20% so it evens the look out. However I have mixed feeling about different tail lights though.

Oh and about the snow comment. That is all the snow that we have. Roads are clean and dry. I do not really see winter here where i live.

I like it a lot. I was actually thinking about getting those rims too. I say drop the front a little more and you'll be set. 00-01 SE tails wouldn't hurt either.

Not everyone likes their car to look tacky and ghetto.



To the OP: car looks great! Just needs a detailing (don't we all right now?)

Those big fat calipers should look great under those rims Oh, and you'll love the ability to never have to do more than breathe on your brake pedal during normal driving ever again

Beautiful choice on wheels man!

So that is what my car would look like essentially with s-techs. Do you know how low you are in the front by any chance?

Now that we both have the A34's on there, it's a race for the Stillen Classic. Ready, set, GO!

^^^ that is exactly what I had in mind for the tails. Did you pain them or put vinyl on the outside?

I have no idea how low the coilovers are set.

^^ Buy that paint and all you have to do is remove the tail lights and spray in through the hole where the bulb socket plugs into. Make very light coats and allow adequate time to dry, because if it runs, it's possible that it'll leak. Just keep adding coats until it matches perfectly (best to look in the sun)

Looks real good. I like the pearl white in the snow. I use to have those A34's but flipped them for a profit before I ever got them mounted. They're discontinued in silver so don't ever crack one or you'll be...

After you get the lip, get it molded to eliminate the crease and you'll be ballin'
