plans of duel exhaust?

 

yeah... I plan on doing dual exhaust but not sure which set up to go with... I went ahead and did a gt rear bumper so that I could be ready for duals... but I've got a baby coming in January so now my mods have been put on hold for a little while... hopefully not too long though... lol

 

Hey O'Conner great job.

What did you do with the side emblems? Did your car come with any? did you end up filling up the holes? Also... Did you say that you got honeycomb for the bottom grille? Looks like that's a street scene gen 1 bumper right? just wondering where you got a honeycomb grille for that.

Also... 1.5" spacer question. anyone ever have any problems with spacers? is it a solid mod? I was thinking of doing something like that but didn't want to create any future problems with the car.

 

I didn't have any side emblems, I just had the side rocker stripe... I was just getting tired of the white stripe down the side so I peeled it off and it actually makes the body kit look a little better without it

it is the street scene gen 1 grille... and it's a honeycomb look... smaller but similar... it matches pretty good just needs to be black

the 1.5'' spacers are hub centric so they are very solid and I haven't had a single problem with them... I put them on at the same time as I updated the wheels from the stock 16's to a staggered 18x9/18x10 setup... the handling with great now and I haven't lowered it yet

 

The lower grille (which looks to be flat expanded aluminum mesh) can be painted easily. If it can be unscrewed from the back, take it off, just sand it lightly then rub it down with a rag with paint thinner, and shoot it with some rattle can primer and then a flat black paint. If not, get some paper bags and some blue painters tape, and sand and paint it on the car. Shouldn't cost you much more than lunch and can be done in no time at all.

 

thanks Kotobuki... if the rain lets up around here I'll definitely shoot some flat black on it and see how it looks... I have been putting it off and putting it off... and it's an easy mod... lol

 

Paint up that grill and that will look better. Not a fan of the tires that far out, but still it look good.

 

I don't think it looks aggressive at all....I think it looks like you ordered the wrong wheels!

this looks aggressive!

 

I'll shoot a shot from behind like that after I get off work... it looks the same as that blue one... just sticks out a little past the fender as well

 

I was just thinking if you lower it, it may look a little funny, to each his own I guess. I mean I like them to fill up the wheel well not stick out and throw rocks all over my paint.......
