Looks good OP, you are fairly local so I'll probably see you on the 605 sometime.

heres a few pics from a local meet




also came across this Prius i gotta say very inspiring .just goes to show you
VIP STYLE CAN BE ACHIEVED ON ALMOST EVERY CAR

looks good. i think you should tuck rim in the rear because its pretty easy. and maybe space out the rears just a bit. so its more flush with the rear quarter. im not gunna say anything about the fronts because that requires a little more effort. camber arms strut tower notch and maybe skinnier tires

So far I'm not seeing any VIP traits except for the coils. You have a very clean is, I suggest a different set of wheels PLZ no (reps) kinda ruining the game and some VIP accessories from Junction Produce and youll be on the route to VIP haven. Keep up the work bra.

thanks. as far as ruining the game i wouldnt say that completely. even tho i have reps they look good ,i plan to get euroline DH's in the future . JP accessories would be nice , but That would be ruining the game cant have those on the car with reps on . i plan to get a shift knob but thats it . curtains ,trays ,neck pads, etc will come later when the outside is done

took some shoots this morning with my camera
(canonrebelt2iTI) recently pulled my front fenders and went lower because the sportcross bumper doesnt sit low enough. considering maybe going lower in the rear
wat do u guy s think?

thanks bro. i do like vossens tho but just not for this car . over rated maybe haha. thats exactly the set up i want when i get new wheels. yeah ive seen ur car b4 actually. its one my inspirations . the wheels looks clean on ur car overall slammed aswell .i plan on going lower . tomorrow when i install the new bumper but kinda scared the wheel might hit the top to much because of the 19's
currently im 225/35/19 tire not if i could

Thanks a lot man. i never thought that my car would've been an inspiration!!! and i think what you should do is put some painters tape on the areas that you think will rub. take the car out for a proper drive and then check to see if it rub or not. the tape will rub off if the tire rubs against anything.

Very clean man, I'm diggin the color of your car and wheel choice. I've always loved these cars so I'm definitely looking forward to see what you have planned! I also agree with what has been said about bags. They're dope, but not for everybody, and you can definitely go the VIP route without em. Keep up the good work man!

i dont think your car needs vossen wheels. vossens are over rated. your car is clean AF! and im jealous. this is just the beginning, youll eventually get the hang of it. im still learning as well. and you dont necessarily NEED 3 piece wheels but if you can afford them then i would get them. you could easily pull off 9.5 in the front and 10.5s in the rear. this where offset is key
