lookin good... maybe some red lugnuts would be great trim pieces to set off the black a lil bit, since black is obviously your trim color... just a thought tho.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to do the thingy w/ the black headlights, but I'm going to get a set of clear tails and make LED panels that are black so you don't see them... I planned on changing all the lights in the car to LED anyway...

So far, so good, keep up the good work on the ride. :thumbsup:

Damn, those look really nice man. Makes me wish I did that to my slipstreams instead of selling them.

hopefully, I can afford these white Motegi's I'm looking at someday, and I"ll get those on the car and get the pisscan paint started on the body after the rust is filled/fixed.

Sometime between now and then, I"ll put a new pics thread up for this ride.

Just had a "roffle" on the way to the way to the job site this morning... I saw a '90 Civic Si hatch w/ the same wheels and red around the lip... and I had to laugh to myself.

yeah, except you're in NC, and I'm in southern PA... lol but he did have a MD plate, which is pretty common around here.
