Few new mods...pics!

As I've stated a few other times,
I CAN'T lower it because it is my daily driver and I live in Nebraska.
I can barely get into my driveway now as it is with how low it is.
So lowering is out of the question.
As for the 20"s, they came on the car when I got it from the dealer,
I've been trying to sell them ever since to pick up something else,
but alas, no bites.
As for body kit, not much I can do really, not in my price range.
I'll be putting dual ex. on Friday.
My next mod will be hidden fogs behind the AM retro grille.
Then possibly a gt500 rear valance. (Not the entire bumper, just the lower black part).

Are the roads really that awful? Our roads here suck but lowered cars seem to be ok anyways. The only thing that would worry me are the driveway and speedbumps, but they make ramps for the driveway, and many speedbumps already are too high for my car to clear. Found that out the hard way. Plus, since you have 20s, the loss of ride quality probably won't even be noticeable (srs joke). As for selling the 20s, I am sure you can find someone on these boards to take them off your hands for a reasonable price, if they are not covered in curb rash.

The wheels actually only have about 4000 miles on them. The rims as well. Virtually perfect shape.
I've had them on the boards for awhile,
asking about 1400 since they cost more than that new. But still, no bites.
Anyways,
roads aren't bad.
But EVERY single driveway, parking lot, etc, has a nice big curb type thing you have to go up. Lowering would be a mistake, and it'd just tear up my chin spoiler. I think I'll pass and just deal with it "looking too high".
Not to mention, lowering it makes the chance of bottoming out more likely. Which when I'm getting up at 4am for work and driving on unplowed roads..no thanks.

Haha, I know that feeling......
But still, I think if you actually did it, it would be much less of a problem then you think it will be. Either way, just getting rid of the 20s will be a huge improvement in ride quality and handling. Do you have wheels/tires/sizes in mind if someone were to buy your wheels?

Not a fan but it's your car so you know how that goes. On the lowering we all have curbs/driveways etc and I do not have any issues with them. To climb these obstacles all you need to do is approach at a 45 degree angle and problem solved. I hope I could post this without everyone getting in a hisey.

How about we keep this thread on-topic.
I believe the topic is the hash marks, and rear faux cap logo.
Obviously everyone dislikes how high my car seems to sit, but as I've stated, I will not lower it, unless it's a 1.5" drop, JUST in the rear.
And I'm trying to get new wheels, but the ones I have now won't sell.
the end.

Ok, ok, haha. We are almost as bad as OT when it comes to on-topic threads.
The hash marks look awesome. On many cars it just makes it look cluttered, but because you don't already have a bunch of serious exterior mods, it looks clean and cool. The transformers thing is pretty neutral in my mind. I don't particularly care for it but I have nothing against it.
