I feel as if my car is missing something that is preventing it from looking "clean". I cant pin point what will give it the clean look. Does it need a CTR spoiler? Molding repainted? Front lip?

Im in love with my car, but I know its missing SOMETHING. Ill be receiving a front lip on Saturday (Type-R replica). I hope that makes me feel better.


Input please?

Hopefully. Thanks man!



As for the lower+smaller tires comment, not really thinking of going any lower. I scrape, but not heavily. Thats good for these messed up LA county streets. I am planning on smaller tires when I replace these. I have 225s up front and 205s up back. Should I stick with 225s all around or 205s?? I think they are 40's if im not mistaken though. I like how these are thick though, they have more protection for my rims!

It needs a lip, maybe an Si grill, painted trim, and proper tires, then you'll be in much better shape

your car is missing a LOT

you need to CLEAN IT, your paint looks like junk

get that lip painted and put on

SI grill

and take GOOD pictures, dont take pics in the sun like that, it just makes them look worse

take pics at dusk or when it is overcast

lower it more

that will be a start

Front lip (OE or name brand)
Paint rear lip
Paint sideskirts
Tires with a shorter sidewall

I'm sure I could think of more, but I haven't looked into what I'd want to do with a '99-'00 without a moonroof. I'd also want to paint the trim.

Detail & better photos.

i dont really get it, i think its your car being not clean and your pictures being full of fail

but its normally pretty hard to make a stock car look that bad, but your excelling at it.

There def is a lot of height with the stance, they don't look like 40 series to me, and 225's are way to big.

Thanks for the C&C, really appreciate it. Ill get better pictures longrain, then re comment. For those of you that say the tires are too big, these were on an EG before me, so you know they looked worse.

Here is a pic before drop.
