My former rice mobile (before and after pics)

I found some pics of my car the day I bought it, rice and all. So I've decided to let you all view the before and after pics of my former rice mobile.

Before:

After(and a new camera):

As you can see, I took all the stickers off, took the wing off, replaced the altezzas with stock tails, painted my clears amber, and replaced the clear bumper lights with stock lights to keep the amber theme going.

BTW, shortly after taking off my altezzas I brutally beat them with a hammer until they were unrecognizable. I wish I had pics of it.

:eek: WOW!! It looks like a totally different car! It looks so much better now! :)

Dude JDM corners are clear :D

Dude, you should have left in the clear center piece and put stocks in the sides, that would have looked badass. But I agree, the tezzas your car came with were pretty ugly

My car is JDM. All of it... well, except the intake and exhaust... since the car was imported from Japan :D

Oh yeah, the point of this post: You're right QSEF9, they are :flash:

I tried leaving just the clear centerpiece, but it looked totally out of place.

Those wheels were $360 a piece, and they came with the car. Why would I spend precious hard earned money replacing perfectly good wheels?

Dude those wheels look hella tight! I dunno why everyone hates on chrome wheels these days.

Also I like the windshield banner, catches attention, but isnt too flashy, it blends well.

those corners look like some photoshop

Trust me they're not. I picked up a can of yellow Krylon Stained Glass spray paint, and gave the corners a couple coats. It's just the reflection from the corners that makes it look weird.

Do they make red stained glass paint? I am thinking of doing up my tails

Yup, they got it in all colors.
