:closeup: your EVO is clean

You definitely should've dropped the car first before the rims, but since you're getting it soon, it should be no problem. FF rally y0!

I'm not gonna say anything about the altezzas, I'm a rice nazi. If I saw you on the streets, pics of your car would be on the basement board here.

Other than that :thumbup:

not a big fan of your tails, mostly the inside pieces. But deffinately a nice drop as I'm sure you're aware of and it's a good start

Keep up the good work!

me too, and i have all amber bulbs in them. they look good at night. no more trying to match hyper-white corner bulbs i changed right after my sister got a $160/around that much ticket for only clear headlights and rear sidemarkers. kept the clear signals though

meh, I was going to get those, but mine were only $75, those are $130, even on ebay. I think after I put in my pro-kits and kyb agx shocks, I'm gonna try to get a type-r upper grill, some eyebrow's, mugen lip/side skirts, and maybe some JDM (style) headlights. After I get some of that stuff done, start saving for engine/tranny swap. thanks for feedback.

I went back to stock except for my corners which I went with the euro style with no reflector but it is all amber. Sidemarkers is amber as well now. Only hyperwhite is my dome and interior door lights.h:

Cause you know in Cali, front license plate is mandatory. But it looks fugly so I don't put one on.:rick: Gotta look as much stock as possible.

After doing mods for over 6 years, I want to just say you get what you pay for. The reason why the TYC is more expensive is the quality of the lights is as good as OEM if not better.

I've had my altezza daysh: and the quality of those lights suck, and the light output sucks as well. I'm surprised I was never rear ended cause during a sunny bright day you couldn't even tell those things were on.:nervous:

That is like the difference between Hyundai and Honda. Both are cars and both start with a H. One is cheaper then the other, so what would you choose?

my city (fremont) is notorious in the bay area for cops vs modded imports (my sister was caught by the worst one, i've read about him on forums!), so staying close to stock-looking is a must. nothing attention-getting like clear tails, altezzas, or a huge wing. not that i would let any of those get near my car anyway. but since they notice things as small as clear headlights and sidemarkers around here, it isn't worth losing the money.

can't say it any better than that.
