From Yuck look to JDM look in 2 months with 0$.

[LeBleu Si]

Hey guys i just wanted to post some pics of my transformation, this was the car when i 1st got her.

then in 2 months the car looks like this with 0$ is all about selling and finding DEALS.

Lets do the math....

Bough the car for 3900.00 yup a hell of a deal...
Wheels? sold the ones the car came with for 250.00............................250.00
sold the tow hitch for 100.00..................................................................100.00
sold OEM valve cover for 75.00.............................................................. 75.00
total = 425.00
Spend on getting the car to where it is now.

Wheels? traded them for a set i had at home that were free...................FREE
coil overs were free i paid 20.00 for shipping..........................................20.00
Mugen lip "we painted it ourselves with spray can".................................40.00
JDM side markers......................................................................................25.00
Mugen Valve Cover NEW IN BOX..............................................................80.00
Mugen Authentic oil cap.............................................................................30.00
Raybrigs Fog lights.....................................................................................27.00
CTR headlights "not the real ones".............................................................35.00
Exhaust from the cat back..........................................................................60.00
HID's i had a set laying around....................................................................FREE
True AEM CAI traded it for the OEM air box................................................FREE
Rear EBP bumper one of the guys in the club had an extra one ................FREE
Blue Lug nutz birthday present....................................................................FREE
Total ........................317.00
Minus the profit i made in selling the parts from the car when i 1st got it..425.00
Profit + 108.00

See it can be done....... oh yeah and with the 108.00 i made profit i put it towards a GOOD alarm system.

[ryanM]

in all honesty i think you made it look worse.

spraypainted headlights look tacky
OEM lip is better than that knockoff piece of garbage any day.
fake JDM foglights look stupid
the wheels are self explanatory... ROTA
and you put a stupid badge in the grill... also tacky
fake mugen valve cover is lame...

and what the f**k is with the window banner?

overall

 

[ragedeep]

i disagree with ryan, its a nice looking car and your a hustla, i respect that

 

[Shenanigans]

Better for sure but lose the giant window sticker.

So you're saying your time to hunt down all of these good deals and doing all the work wasn't worth any $$?

WOW that really shows how smart you are can i be your friend........ if i wanted to be like everyone else i would have left the OEM....buy it and drive it straight from the dealer but since i like to be different who cares what you think, By the way the wheels are not ROTA as you are so smart to know, they are Konig Heliums.as far as the fog lights they are actually Reybrigs i just happened to get a hell of a deal on them they were "used" the headlights are NOT spray painted.... they are fake yes but unless you get close to them and look for the "Stanley" logo, you cant tell the difference and as far as the banner that's our car club. I honestly don't care what you think but at least have some education when criticizing someones car

Oh yeah, you do know this web site is equipped with spell check why don't you use it.

In today's economy is a good idea to save every penny. and yes i didn't spend any out of pocket money.

It looks fine to me.

Funny how...minus the wheels, it looks just like Sirus's civic or a lot of the other EBP si's out there..and everyone else it looked SICK.

Car looks great man. I can appreciate what you did to it. Looks fine.

i looked at your build up tread and nice work man look nice and as far as JDM you guys are right i should have posted "JDM Style" but its cool as far as the spelling i counted several but again that's cool i like my car is clean and not over done and yet different.

Not what I asked but yeah, it's always good to save $$.

oh my bad what did you mean? if it was worth looking for the parts and taking 2 months to do? yes it was you see i not only did I saved money but i did it in the winter, we got snow most of Jan and Feb and the weather was shitty so is not like i was in a hurry to finish it.
