Got me some new wheels...(pics)

Now.......... it is time to drop it, fix my dents and do something with these ugly bumpers, get brakes and rotors, a tag, some insurance, new exhaust put on (got it), pick up my Si seats that I bought for $50, get it painted, do my MPFI swap and I think that's it for now. :screwy:

Damn, just when I thought I was about done, writing it down makes it seem like theres alot more to get done than it really is. Anyways, I bought these '95 GSR fat fives from a friend of mine for $150 w/ tires. I thought it was a great deal although one of them is scratch a little. Heres some pics:

Those look sweet and you got them for an awesome price. Im waiting to snag a set cheap on eBay. Who needs paint swap an engine into it first.

for me painting it is cheaper right now then swapping. On the other side the front panel has been replaced and is mismatched. Me being a girl, I can't ride like that. I am finally getting back on my feet, I got 2 jobs and I am saving so hopefully everything will be done by late March/ early April.

Wow Ive been lurking for a year and a half and I always thought you were a guy for some reason lol..... good luck getting it all fixed you buy spring!

tires are too big! but its a start. :smile:

The tires aspect ratio looks completely wrong.

Drop before wheels! lowrider lowrider lowrider lowrider lowrider lowrider. It must be lowered immediatley! Sell your fridge if you have to.

Nice wheel choice though.

Sell your fridge if you have to.
lol. Looks good though, keep it up. Do you still live in that bad neighborhood? I remember you used to get a lot of shit stolen and I hope thats over with.

ur car looks just like mine does right now, but my rims have 6 spokes instead of 5. what are u planning to do with the bumpers? i want to get some ideas for how to make my bumpers nice

Looks good, T-Mo!
I always prefer the look of wheels that are made by Honda/Acura. Sounds like you got a deal, too!
Flunky

i just had a vision from the future :screwy:

Yeah seriously, who needs a fridge in the winter, lol.

I still live in the same hood. I told my (now Ex) boyfriend about the guys that I suspected. He went through the neighborhood and got a good look at them and I haven't had anymore problems. They don't even hang around like they use to. He won't tell me, still to this day, what they did, but whatever it was seemed to have worked. Dropping it is first on the list now because it looks like a truck. LOL

Bilson8tor: I got this stuff from work made by Meguiars that is suppose to bring the black back to the bumpers and moldings. I will see tomorrow if it works or not.

Also thanks for the feedback from everyone.

It must be lowered immediatley! Sell your fridge if you have to.
