        Haven't had much time to do changes but here's a little update on the car


        Switched the wheels, emblems, and trim (except the front)

            Your car looks much better with the black trim pieces. Next up would be a nice set of paint-matched iS sideskirts. They will make the car look 2.5x better, and cover up the painted rocker panels.



            For whatever reason, as you grow older and mature into a nice young man, you'll realize that the stock look always prevails over a heavily modified look. iS skirts and you'll win.

              100x better looking already. Get the front bumper surround trim, the black is lip, and think about maybe painting the rocker panels black as well.

                Looks much better, all that red was a bit much for me, and I am no fan of wheels w/o their caps

                      looks great to me, good job saving it from the euro ricer look the po was going for.

                        Most people just buy them new.
