Ouch! But car still rocks! Love the rear GFX and tasteful tailpipes. Grille looks clean too. Still a big thumbs up.

Thanks! The tips are OEM, I'm guessing GFX tips, it came with the car. I love it too but kinda got bored of it (4 years), that's why I'm having a real hard time looking for new aftermarket tips lol, they don't stick out, and looks clean.

EDIT: 8888 posts! and I'm not lucky.

LOL! I love the progression from win to fail.

Your car, shredded tire & all, is still hot Rashoodz.

I hear ya. Tips can ruin the look of a car so easily. I think they should be subtle, yet slightly sporty at the same time. Hard to find a good combo like you said.

montgb, I'm trying to avoid the fact that I didn't clean my car for nothing.

Fizzboy, I want the S2000 tips, but I don't like the fact it's either sticking out, or cutting my exhaust to look perfect. -__-

actv8d, I have no idea, I always felt the slight rubbing on the driver's side, it MUST have to do with me being overweight. I'll get it checked, I guess I need more fender modifications. Or doing the hard way, dieting.

You may have ha low tire pressure and the wheel could have cut into the tire, but I guess TPMS would light up too. Lucky you noticed.

looking clean and even after you mentioned it I cant really tell the color difference on your trunk, looking good

you should take more pictures on your neighborhood, its interesting to see other parts of the world.
