Oh and btw gold emblems are silver underneath in case you do go silver

I also renewed my woodgrain to the best I could after asking a member what he used he said he used purple power to clean his car I would never use that on my car interior so I just went about it by am on my own whim I used a 3m compound last was to seal it and it looks great for sealant I used Detailer's Poli-Coat Paint Sealant I will take some pics for you all tomorrow the difference is greatly noticeable I kept thinking why didn't I do this sooner had I known this would've been ideal and saved

Here's a before picture for reference

really thinking about going back to silver or a light gray, am tired of seeing the back or I'll just sell these and get some 16s yes 16s on 225 55 tires stick wheels FTW, I want to make the car stock again so I could drive it how t was meant to be driven.like its floating on a cloud with the exception of the exhaust that stays. just want a more smoother and better ride. i really want to ditch my coils and get tein or eibachs with tt shocks or mkiv stock suspension can someone advise me which is the best setup and if your on a low budget thanks.i would like to spend under 500 yes I know am cheap but I purchased $1300 coils so give me a break

if you want comfort, go Gixxer_Drew. I have TT struts and Tein springs on my 400, and the ride sucks

IS300 wheels have always looked good on these cars......from the side. They don't show enough meat at the back though and support no weight with regards to the car's heft or added hp
I have the same rims... the staggered version though, 17x7.5 on the rear, running 245s. What do you mean they don't support weight?
