    Well added some new additions to the car. Got black housing headlights and the rims are used but none the less new to me. The tires are brand new though :bigwink:.

    wow.. looks great.. love the rims.. headlights look MUCH better than stock..


    only thing that would make them better is a retro projector and the rest of the housing black IMO. i was gonna do complete black housing with retro fit, but it woulda cost more then the projectors did, so i scrapped the idea, for now.

    i vote doing the front lip that i have on my car.. would be cheap and look badass with the EVO front.

    Thanks!

    I've been eyeing the retro-fits as far as making them myself. A bit costly so I'll weigh in the option to try it to see. If I do try it I'll re-hack my red housing headlights first.

    As for the front lip. I saw your pics and it looks awesome! I've been debating it for quite sometime before I even did the Evo front look. The only problem I see is my car sits too low. The car is riding on Eibach Sportlines so its a 2" drop in the front and 2.4" drop in the rear. But its worth trying it as I do like the look of the lip.

    Lol yeah, it went from stock rims....to painted black w/red lip stock rims.... to painted graphite w/silver lip stock rims now these rims. I really like these rims. Gives the car a whole new look IMO.

    I just ordered a black housing for a retro. I have a set of mini cooper headlights that I scored at a great price so Ill lead the way. I sold my projectors for just about what I paid ofr em.

    as far as the lip goes, i am also running the sportline kit on my car.

    right now, i have about 4 1/4" front clearance and never scrape. i have scraped like twice because there are alot of inclined driveways in this city. like getting into my work, its like a 5% grade. but driving on the road, i never scrape.

    also, the great thing about this stuff, is that its a really rigid plastic that will just wear out, and not crack if you scrape. and the cost for a new one if you scrape that bad, is under 15$.

    I like the rims :thumb2: but since you have quite a few black stuff you should swap side markers and rims with cheryl
    then you'll have all black and she'll have all silverish since her front end isnt painted.

    or you could just paint the rims and sidemarkers.
    but looks good Jesus. :thumb:
