Ditch the tinted corners and tails. Same with that DIY lip. Looks pretty good so far, I don't mind the hood spacers, I think it does make it look more aggressive, and with cleaned up fenders it will all tie together.
We all know that those little D series need all the help they can get, so the hood risers aren't a bad idea, hell, probably increases the gas mileage too. Good start though, and welcome to Stance|Works.

had time and installed my blackworks control arms, the subframe, tie bar and sway bar will be next on my list. After i buy my seat ill finally start working on the engine, planning on doing a h22 swap, but might change my mind and just stick to a d series engine instead ( i really dont care much to make the car fast but it will still have a turbo when im done).
my friend sent me this picture he found on google, big ups to who ever took this, caught my my homie slipping lol

I appreciate all your inputs. I put the cooler/hood spacer on for a more aggressive look, I know they are pointless right now but im sure when I start working on the engine they will come in handy. I personally love "ridiculous" camber and spacers will be added, but I'm also going to take advantage of the room for my next set of wheels I'm going for which are going to be 15x10s. Thanks again tho

I love wagovans, I just don't see the point in the propped hood. It'll be a lot cleaner without it, nonetheless, nice transformation.

I feel like the only thing you did right was the paint color and slamming it, all the other little mods you do make the car look and feel... cheap. Especially the tacky stickers.
If you ditched the propped hood and oil cooler (it looks ridiculous on a car with a stock motor) and got rid of all the tinting on the lights, you could probably pull it all off as a low-buck car to bang around in. The rear camber looks to be incredibly excessive for your wheel and tire sizing, but some people love ridiculous camber- nothing a pair of spacers couldn't fix.
I give you a hat tip for saving a car from being a pile of rust. However, if you're trying to make it an impressive "show" piece that will get attention... this is not the best way to do it.

I would just be repeating everything he said ^^.
Those fenders... yikes. Good job cleaning up the rust though.

Not a bad start. Some advice: the stickers take away from it and the tinted lights are meh. You could do an AWD K swap. Not many have been done but that will just add a whole lot more to this and really fuck with people's heads. I'm assuming you're planning on fixing the fenders and other odds and ends right? Also, please dial in less camber in the back. The sunk wheels just look wack.
