Default First Mini-Photoshoot of my 08' IS

I've had the car for over a year and a half now so I thought it would be about time I made a thread for it. Had an RSX Type-S prior to this that I modified the bananas out of but I'm not too sure I want to do the same to this one. Perhaps some wheels and I'll be done w/ it. Nothing spectacular done to the car but man do I LOVE IT (as proof from the vanity plate ). So here we go,





















All pics were taken by a Canon20D and edited w/ AdobeCS..took a bunch more shots but didn't want to have my friend drive my car for too long haha. Enjoy!

Your car is nice and clean. Love the rolling shots.

Nothing spectacular done to the car but man do I LOVE IT
Let's see, what you've done:
1. springs/coilovers
2. GFX kit
3. Jun TW roof spoiler
4. Tanabe MT exhaust
5. red-out
6. black emblems
7. tint
8. LED DRLs

That's not bad for "nothing spectacular". Definitely some wheels will finish up the look.
