Hey just wanting a lil feedback lemme know what you all think... 97 DX Hatch w. 99/00 front end conversion and Type R front & Rear lip...






























And now for some Photoshop fun with my Pets: Shade-Beagle Kisses-Cat & The Innocent- Eagle



All of my focus has been towards the engine and getting it done... Should be gearing towards exterior here soon. I would like some feedback on what 2 do...Also would like feedback for enterior stuff. The only modification inside is an SI Cluster so far... Also having a hard time deciding wether or not to paint the lip kit to match or leave black?!?!

Here's kinda what i have planned
♦Carbon Fiber Hood, Trunk, Duckbil
♦IS300 Gray Paint / Champ White / Or Stock?
♦GSR Fat 5's Wrapped In Falken Azenis "For Auto-X Events"
♦New Seats(Either Red s2000 seats or CTR Seats)
♦Take out the dings in the rear 1/4 panel and replace 1 fender...

Tru supercharged is better... Im already in the street modified class. I simply miss having a turbo... its been since 00 when I drove my 97 GS-T Spyder which i sold in 01 to buy my TRD Tacoma...

my advice would be to fix up the body work, and then decide from there. I myself have a silver hatch similar to yours, and im fine with it silver. I would like it champ white, but if your body work is fine, you dont have to spend the money to paint your car. You could spend that money toward a bigger turbo if you wanted to. ;)
