Changes to come...

Well, I've made a few decisions lately regarding my hatchie...
#1:
Some of you (SiZ most of all) will be happy to know that I'm going to get rid of my goofy wing LOL. I just don't like it as much as I used to. Instead of putting a stocker back on or a JDM one, I'm going to shave the wing (or more precisely build a fiberglass filler piece to go where the spoiler normally goes). Kinda like in this pic:

Only difference will be that I will try to add an LED strip for a 3rd brake-light.
#2:
I'll be switching to a WW urethane front bumper. I'm kinda tired of the one I have now, and it's all chipped up.
#3:
New rims... I'm also tired of my heavy-as-shit bling bling rims, and I want to go with some lighter spoke-style rims like the old Konig Tuners I used to have (which are now on my sedan). I will still be sticking with 17's though.
Well, that's it. I'm expecting a decent chunk of money sometime soon, and (aside from getting my damn y8 put in), those changes are my priority.

You can't come to K-Falls but you can change all this shit to your car, lol.
It's all good though, how soon are you going to be doing all this?

I definitly like your taste mike, good luck with everything. I bet your gonna get a lot of shit on this board about the ww bumper though cuz its "played out" I think its such a good looking bumper though, i have it myself. And honestly, i dont like the rims you have on your car right now at all so im glad your changing them :iceslolan. You definitly have one of my favorite hatches on this forum though

The Wings West kit may be played out but it sure as hell does look good at least. It's not extreme or anything, which is what I like about it.

From the pic it reminds me of the Blitz front bumper, like on Eclipses.

PLAYED??? Who said the WW bumper is played??? :flipa:
Ok, so maybe it's *popular*, but there's a reason for that. It's the best looking, best fitting, and best made bumper out there for the 4g.
Do your thing Mike. I know your car will be even nicer (if that's possible) when you make the changes you described!!

I'm excited to see the new your car. :D (those were two things I didn't like about your car, and the kit but you're cleaning that up too)

Now all you have to do is get your interior back to stock color and your car would be pimp!

They will be for sale as soon as they come off. I have 5 of them, 4 of them have Nitto NT-450 tires on them (one new, and another fairly new... the other two are in decent condition).
The wing will also be for sale, and possibly the front bumper.
