Post 1st Pic Post

I want to MOD my car but not so much as for it to look like a rice rocket lol but just enough so that I can stand out. Aside from rims and a 3 10'' subwoofer system I havent done anything else except wash and wax her to death(the neverending dust battles). What else can I do?

Taken from another picture and added into yours. In other words, they don't look real on your car.

one of the first things i did was buy a clear side marker for up front (cost $20). also, use laquer thinner (cost 1 hour of my time and sore hands) and remove the black paint from the front of the grill so the chrome shines through

look at my pics on

Default I was gonna say Photo Shopped also!

They look photo-shopped in the first picture cause I think they are, not that you don't have rims but that you enlarged them in the pic, look at the wheel well space in the other 3 pictures.......

I would lower the car, you will get closer to the look of the first pic.........

What else can I do?


If u don't wanna do too much, maybe a drop of 1 " springs/shocks. Maybe the TTE lip? Once u start though, it is hard to stop..

I agree , the rims on the first pic looked atlease 20s and the other ones looked 18s. Anyways slamm that Lex for sure, thatz the first thing I would do, loved my car when I slammed it with the stock rims.
