Wow, you've really done a great job with your wife's car. Cool wife too, to let you do that to her ride. Only problem I have is your AX's make my AX's on my LS look weak, lol!!

Thanks guys for all the comments!


haven't done an update in awhile... Nothing big, just some small things changed since the last time are

- JDM front bumper
- Sold both sets of wheels and picked up some new Traffic Stars

The whole EMPIRE crew did matte black Plasti dip for WekFest Hawaii about a month or two ago, Also did the lips black just for the show. It wassnt everyone's cup of tea but it was worth it since all 12 cars were matte black and uniformed. Ended took home best crew!!

And for the record, no it was NOT done with spray cans, it was done the correct way with a Gun.
Anyways on with the pics ... enjoy!


Got The JDM Bumper in with Fogs.... SHIPPING TO HAWAII SUCKS!!!!



Test Fitment Pics, Perfect





How the car looked at WekFest Hawaii murdered out, dipped car and lips of wheels




Peeled the lips and this was the last time the shoes were on the car before getting sold



And the dude bought BOTH sets of wheels ame's and Wald's.. had to throw the shaka in there



Sad day when we shipped the wheels off but on to bigger and better things!

After selling the old shoes we were looking for new shoes, wifey fell in love with this set of Traffic star's at Revision Audio and couldn't pass up the deal

big thanks to samson mak @ revision's


they are somewhat aggressive, not as crazy as we wanted to go but they'll do for now

19x10
19x11


This is the Rear wheel


The Infamous "Test Fittment" pics on the car before tires




After Mounting Tires *before Pulling more* Hard to tell in the pic but i had to slightly pull the rears just a hair more









And how she sits now





so as of now the plans are to get a lip kit or some sort or maybe a clean bodykit. Plasti dip is peeled and probably gonna get the car re painted, and looking for a exhaust system. thanks guys for looking

thanks man, honestly my wife did'nt like the car either when she was car shopping back in 2006 (when she purchased it) but i talked her into getting it and she is glad i did! in Stock form they dont look very appealing, but have soooo much potential
