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.

Car is on point! At least it didnt blow out when you were driving and damage the wheel.
