Default New pics, New wheels

I'm just getting back on the CL Forum after being off for a while, so I thought I'd post some pics I took today. My car is nothing like some of the others on this forum, but I love it nonetheless.

That's a clean look. What kind of exhaust do you have?

Car looks good!... exhaust tips stick out too far IMO - just a minor annoyance.

Car, drop and wheels look nice but the tips are too far out for my tastes.

Thanks! I couldn't go too aggressive on the drop because I'd be tearing up my car with the way I drive!

Yeah, I put those on with the intention to get the Wald rear lower apron which sticks out a bit more than the OEM apron. As you can see, I haven't forked out the cash yet for that Wald.

I just restored the headlights and fog lights over the weekend. They look nearly new again. It's probably the lighting that makes you think it looks hazy. They are definitely clear though.

It is lowered, but it's subtle. The front is lowered .75 inches and the rear 1 inch. For my tastes and driving style, it's perfect!
