There is nothing wrong with these lower brands. NEX I have heard before from my civic experiences. They have actually been around for some time, 5yrs+ I believe. NEX, like Omnipower/K-Sport were little companies that blew up over night due to forums like this. And of course, the price is always right!!!

I didn't like your wheels much but I am starting too after you lowered it some more. Its too bad you can't go any lower, looks like the rear is sticking out a tad bit. I bet if you stretched the rear tires more you could go a bit lower, but its not worth it IMO.

Car looks great. Brand matters most of the time....sometimes it doesn't. Long as you are happy with the result, that's all that matters.
You must be in Miami? Looks like a lot of 3GS's in south florida. I'm thinking we should all get together for a 3GS photoshoot and maybe a BBQ.

Where is a nice place to use some grills and take pics. I haven't hung out in Miami since getting married 14 years ago. I used to bbq at Haulover beach (could be spelled wrong). Is that a good spot?


BTW, I added your car to the GFM color thread. I hope you don't mind. I'll delete it if needed.
