Looks good! Why didn't you have them paint your mirrors and door handles while they were at it? Just a thought emoji

Well..... I thought about it actually, but I really think I like them better black. I'm doing a Burgandy, Black, and Chrome/Silver thing.

I'm in the middle of a nice (long) black interior paint job (very long) w/ some silver 'highlights' (very very long). I've got I guess I got almost 1/4 the car done (did I say long?). Anyways, it brings out more black that way me thinx.



Pics a lil old, but U get the idea emoji

P.S.
I hate the tan interior, everything must B painted emoji

P.P.S.
I've thought of upgrading the mirrors 2 some new black 1's w/ the white turn signals built in 2 emoji

Thanx!

LOL :: sigh :: there's always 1... SOOOoooooooooo farmdog, does this mean U'd like 2 make a contribution 2 my humble charity?!? It's a great cause! emoji

Mike, yeah... no joke, very different 4 sure. 1st thing I noticed after picking my jaw off the floor was how they hit my ankles when I got in, & it's not even lowered yet. Definately makes it look better, just gotta get rid of that cursed wheel gap emoji

Think I may have sold my house, should find out out in the next day or so, that'd mean I'd prob get 2 come up & C every1, hope so emoji

KSeclipse, I think I bought them from U... I know your email addy (skate666?) But yeah, thanx... they're great!

As 4 painting the mirrors & the handles, I'd definately do it if there wasn't any other black trim (top lip of the front scoop, fog light housing, antenna, etc.) I'm just happy w/ them I guess, can't argue w/ that emoji But yeah, it prob helps that my car is dark anyways... would prob think diff if it were white, I dunno emoji

P.S.
Feel free 2 contact me as I'm accepting any & all 'help' for the Jason's Koni Yellow Charity Fund emoji

Thanx!

Well, diff skirts 4 diff peeps emoji I personally think they're great w/ the lines. I was very happy that it lined up perfectly w/ the indention in the door, loox like it belongs. The bottom of the front part of the skirts are the same height as the front spoiler also.

While I haven't gotta prob w/ our rear bumper, I'll prob either add the 1/4 trim pieces 2 it or replace it w/ (crap 4got the name now) an aftermarket bumper which will make the lower part of the back line up perfectly. There's some1 on here w/ a white eclipse & these same skirts & the aftermarket bumper... have 2 look it up now emoji, & it loox tight as h*ll!

While I'd like the scoop (& everything else emoji ) molded in2 the car, I'm a po mo fo w/ no do. Bsides, the trim & bumper actually uses it as an extension, aka completes the line.

P.S.
I'll drop the car 1st tho since it's about the same $$$.

Anywho, thanx!

Sweet looking car, sideskirts look awesome! I love the invaders....make the car look sooo much better I think. Blitz bumper and invader sides is deadly in my opinion...but that might just be because I got that on mine emoji emoji

Lots 2 do, lots 2 do... I've definately got a pretty long wish list. Next on my list: lower the d*mn thing, it's been p*ssing me off 4 a long time. It's kinda my constant work-in-progress w/ some good learning Xperiences. Unfortunately, I tend 2 B limited from my own lack of funds than ambition in this department.

Anyways, thanx... I tend 2 like a pretty clean cut (I guess U could call stock like) car. I think graphics R pretty, just not 4 me. Don't want an aluminum spoiler either, but molded. The rims I guess kinda go along here as they R technically a stock rim (although not 4 our car emoji ) and have more function than form.

esi, yeah... U should update your site w/ some pics of your front emojiI like how U blacked out the yellow in your tail lights!!

Snail in car huh? Is this 2 confuse honda lovers, 2 make them feel @ home, or what? putt putt putt, LOL. Gonna have 2 Xplain that 1 emoji

U know, if I had my front spoiler like I wanted... I wouldn't have the fog light things or the upper lip of the scoop black. That means my antenna would also B shaved & I'd have nothing 4 my handles & mirrors 2 match. Then I would not hesitate 2 paint them, but until then... nahhhhhh, I'm happy emoji

Thanx!

U know, I'd really like an aftermarket front (blitz, etc.)... but U've gotta admit that our stock front is the best ever C'n on any mass produced car. Drop dead gorgeous even.

My reasoning is that if the front loox so good already (albeit can look even better emoji ), & my sides line up w/ the front all kewl... that my 1st step (after dropping the car of course) is 2 replace the back (which isn't anything special, although I do like the size of our reverse lights).

U can guys can tell me, but I'd imagine that replacing either front or back is EZ'er than the sides Bcause U haven't got any bolts 2 hide/cover up. All a matter of fitting them.

Thanx!
