i thought this was another stolen car thread...

:word:
but while i'm at it, from that back picture it does look like it needs to be lowered, but the front side picture not so much.
smaller tires, paint match all your lips and side skirts and maybe a different spoiler.
i agree on possibly smaller wheels, or paint them black, the dark bronze color or whatever it is isn't popping with the red.
and def. x2 on cleaning it and taking some better pics.

I'm lower than he is (a least with the lip) and I don't scrape.

What are you lowered on?

How do you scrape? Your not even that low.....
You can still scrape without even being lowered.

I scrape on deep driveways and driveways if I take them straight (a slight angle fixes it though).

@NOFX: Im lowered on Progress Teal springs.


Here is a pic on 14" with OEM sized tires.

Some legit 15's with 195/45/15 tires, paint match door handles, side moldings, rear license plate housing side skirts, rear lip and front lip. Get an SI grille, some black housing headlights, ditch the fogs, ditch the tint, get some CTR mirrors, and a legit huge Mugen wang. Last but not least, suck it up and slam it.

Paint match everything and get a Si grille. A duckbill wing would also be sweet.

the biggest thing holding your car back is the ride height. i know you dont wanna go lower but that's what its missing. paint matching and lips and grills and s**t helps. ultimately dumping it is gonna make look better even w/out all those other things listed. no hatin from me.

You need to get the lips painted, wet sand & buff the headlights, 195/50/15 tires, maybe some different mirrors

as for me. I think you just need to paint the lip and get smaller tires and lower it a little more and paint the side moldings and paint the mirrors.

It needs a lip, maybe an Si grill, painted trim, and proper tires, then you'll be in much better shape
paint match the moldings, sideskirts, and mirrors... possibly an Si grille?
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.
sums it up.

Front lip, paint match said lip as well as side skirts and rear lip. it will make it look a tad lower without actually being lower. Si grille will help it. I say lower it more too, but you obviously don't want to so front lip will really help.

I picked up my Type-R lip today.


I got home and realized it was a 96-98. Uggh, I was so excited to put it on too.
