My opinion: WAY better now, but I think there's too much negative camber at the rear end..
I do love your wheels though and the color is much nicer

Looking good! I love the new kit.....looks wayyyy better. Love the new JDM touches to it. Not sure what to think about the painted visors but all in all, looks great....minus the epic camba.

Probably one of the nicest first gen IS I've ever seen. The wheels, the fitment, the stance and just overall totally phenomenal
