Pics of my car after the first car wash this year...

Since I have yet to post any pics of my car I figured I'd post the pics after I washed my car (first car wash this year). Winter mode sucks, but hey, it's clean and that's the way I like it, LOL. Right now I'm rocking blades in the summer, but I'm thinking I need a change. Any suggestions as to what else might look good? Or should I stick with my blades?







Any feedback is appreciated (positive or negative)

Blades or SiRs would look nice, so stick with your blades.

some gunmetal rims with a polished lip would look bitchin too.

If you want to keep the GSR wheels, I suggest a different colour than silver.

looking good.
some things i would do

drop the car *if its already dropped it needs to drop more*
1.6 EL folding or Power Foldings mirrors
Thin Side mouldings (jdm)
Thin Rain Visors (jdm)

if you want to add a little spice to the front add a bumper pole on it.

well the car is dropped 1.3/1.4 all around, doesnt look like it because the driveway is uneaven so it looks high on some sides. Has eibach prokit springs. The reason i didn't drop more is because I wanted springs I could use all year round without becomming a snow plow. Right now the mudguards scrape on speed bumps so I am alright for no in terms of a further drop. If i can manage to grab another car soon then I will contemplate dropping this thing further.

In terms of the mods suggested by team rukus, i have already thought about the jdm thin mouldings and if i see em around for a decent price i will grab a set. The EL mirrors i can live without as i actually prefer the ones i have. The bumper pole i'd do, but the damn thing costs too much, lol.

Yup, car is a 5spd. I'd love to drop it only a bit more like to 1.6ish, but nothing more. I don't think such a spring exists. A buddy of mine dropped his teg on h and r race springs and that is just much too low for my liking. I would definitely not lose the tint because I personally like it (which is why i have it), but thanks for the suggestion. The silver trim comes stock on the EX model so there isn't much I can do about that. At the very least it goes nice with my blades when they are all clean and shiny, lol. And for the record, i'd never get any rota rims unless i wanted to be like "everyone and their grandmother" LOL. Slipstreams I just can't get myself to like, i dont know if it is because they are rota or because they look butt ugly. Everyone seems to be suggesting EL mirrors, maybe I should Look into those. Are the El mirros powered and heated as well? Does the connector fit directly?

I LOVE YOUR TAILS. CTR headlights plz. Theres a good DIY on CTR headlights our DIY section. I just cant like those headlights. THey look weird to me.

Each to his own.

Do you have your stock headlights? Do the DIY, it will look great. Also I agree with the blade rims. Get some nice ones. Thye go fro usually under $500. Usually.
