    i love the camber look, thinking of doing some custom camber up front but not sure yet, the smoked tails i also like but i think i might get me another pair just to change it up when i feel like it.

    Let me get right to it, i found a set of fenders an hour and a half upsate, as i drove to get them 1 of my front tires decided to pop in the middle of no where around 10pm, luckily the guy i bought the fenders from had a spare tire and saved my ass. On the way home I hit a bad bump and my front lip broke, wasnt too mad since the lip did hold on for a pretty long time being as how low i am.









    Next day i go and buy the new tires and as im waiting a lady backing up out of the stores parking lot hit my wag greeeeeeeat, it wasnt a very hard hit but it did manage to lift my paint and scratch it. now for the fun part, new tires! i went with the original size i wanted which was federal 155/55. Tires dropped my wag another inch or so didnt really measure but it was pretty noticeable once i drove it.

















    Lastly i didnt like the gap in the rear so i threw on a set of 1in spacers and now im in love, all i need to do now is paint the new fenders and fix the fitment in the front. i also picked up a roof rack which in my opinion gave it a more aggressive look and bought me a set of sparco seat belts. (for all the people that get butt hurt over camber you might wanna look away)

    Not my style, but props for having a wagon! And I'm jealous you have the grey interior

    Heres a small update that i have, couldnt really do much due to the amount of tickets i get but i managed to buy me some seats. For the longest time ive been looking for a set of seats and i came across some tenzo-r for a good price, so i decided to get them but after a few days they just werent what i was looking for and i put them up for sale. Next day my boy forwards me a CL post of some mint sparco fighter seats( these were the seats i originally wanted), i jumped right on them and got them for a steal! they came with eg rails+sliders and only had 3 flaws, 2 of them were on the padding and the last one was a small scratch but enough talk heres some pics....


























    also lowered it some more




    lastly this happened... stupid people that cant back up...

This ambient air will be heated by the engine, and the car will suck in hot air. With the hood risers in place the trapped air in the engine bay has a way to escape, thus decreasing intake air temperature.
    No.

    Air does not leave the engine bay through the hood. It is in fact forced in. Have you ever seen a cowl induction hood? Yep. Right below the windshield is a very high air pressure zone.

    But it looks pretty dumb. I had smaller spacers in mine a while back to clear the engine but found out my engine mounts were tweaked. Fixed them and ditched the spacers.

    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.
    thanks for the love and advice, i am gonna get the ef lip but i keep forgetting to buy it when i have money and the tinted tail light i actually like, they dont look good because the bumper wasn't painted so theres just to much black going on (in my opinion). the fenders definitely need to be fixed ASAP, i **** looking at them the way they are but i have to wait till next summer because thats when ima paint it again and fix everything on the outside
