Default itzhieu's build thread!
hey guys, i realized i have done quite a bit of mod to my car but i never had the time to make a build thread! i wished i had started it sooner so i can see the progress :/ its almost two years since i had the car and i think its about time! so here goes! enjoy


first time seeing it at the dealer!


brought the car home on october, 31, 2010!


fully stock!


tint and redouts!


6k garax and 3k HID fogs!



plastidipped front emblem and grill!


car was sitting too high so it was time for a drop! Buddy Club coilovers!


how can you have a drop without wheels?!
wheels came! volks re30s



got bored of the volks so decided to switch it up! Works VSXX in white with polished lips



my car was starting to look really ideal! but...my rear was so plain :[


MyRide Diffuser!!




looks nice! but look at that stock exhaust..hmmm.. Greddy SP Elite



and here is how she sits today!!!



will be adding a couple more things on here in a couple of days!!
invidia midpipe


CURRENT:

changed wheels and added the replica wald trunk spoiler from carkingtuning. the fitment is perfect on this thing!



UPDATED PICS ON PAGE 7

Thanks for looking !!

Car looks great. Love the rims and the color contrast of the white rims and blue color of the IS.

Keep us posted with new pics.

Looks awesome! And those wheels are really 18's? Nice.

Any reason why you went with Invidia midpipes vs Megan's? I have the GReddy's also and looking for a midpipe setup.

i went with the invidia because it doesnt have the secondary cats! my greddy sp elite is really quiet so i wanted a more aggressive midpipe to make it louder
