I can read.

sorry my bad, i missed that bit about 16's.

i agree, oldschool rims on this would look badass. i do really like the current ones too though, they suit it really well imo.

UPDATE: i made a spoiler

So while i'm waiting to take the car to the body shop i figured that i should do a few things.

I wanted a chin spoiler because i dont like the other options i have for this car. Which are aftermarket front bumpers that change the look of the front end.

So, since i have a bunch of ABS plastic lips that i sell, i figured that i should try to make one work. (which i have done before, did you know a 97-00 prelude lip fits a galant vr4 with absolutely no modifications?) I went through honda front and rear lips, VW lips, i even tryed a 350z lip. Nothing was working out...until. I test fitted a lip from a Mazda 3. It didnt fit perfect but it was close enough that with some heavy trimming, shortening, and custom brackets i came up with this.

side fitment

I like it, it helps scoop air into where the intercooler is going to go, its one of a kind, i made it, and if it ever breaks it will only cost me $80 and a few hours to make a new one. And i like the fact that it was originally intended for a Mazda 3

very very nice! i love the first gens. miss mine alot.
another little fyi, vw mk2 fender flares fit these almost prefect.

This is already the best looking FB I have ever seen

looks pretty dope man, can you drop those headlights down a bit? "sleepy" style... i think it would make the front end a lot better with that lip you made. Also, stick with 15's... they look perfect.

no way it looks dope the way it sits. sleepy mod headlights look so ricey
