        High offset small lipped 17" RSs with the proper sized (IMO, stretched) tires adapted to 4x100 would look super sick on your car. But only because you've got the OEM bodykit and HIGH arches.

          Say NO to the stretched tire disease.

            That car looks perfect the way it is. I think 17" would look ridiculous on that car. 16 is as far as i would go. But the ones you have right now with 2.5 in lips thats sexx.

                If you EVER sell that car, don't look any further than your friendly neighborhood MT1 front end hook-up. I'm serious.

                I'm glad something from my car lives on... :(

                    For those who don't know- every bit on that front end with exception of the turn signals and kidneys is from my car.

                            Wow, amazing job. I don't normally like headlight wipers, but for some reason it looks good on your car.

                              You know you'd get first dibs ;)

                              Everything came together really well. The previous owner of the car rear ended someone, so if you look closely you'll notice the front end sags a bit in the middle and there's a gap above the kidneys. At some point I'll rectify that, but I'm happy for now.

                              I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the black headliner or the rear headrests/ski pass through. The headliner was masked off and sprayed with all interior bits intact. Came out really well and no overspray.

                              Couple of exterior blemishes, one of which was due to fender rolling and shortened struts. We couldn't get the angle we wanted, so the passenger side front fender has a nice line in the middle of it where the corner of the wheel was. Also bulges out a little bit towards the back of the arch. All things to be fixed someday if I decide to stretch them out for wider tires.

                              All in all, I'm very pleased with the end product. Thank you all for your kind words, and stay tuned for more pics.
