Suggestions for my Evo 6

I'm just out for some suggestions, I'm building the TAMIYA Evo 6 (street version, non-TME), going to be metallic blue.

Was just wondering:

Should I get bigger aftermarket rims & drop it?
Bigger exhaust tip?

Any other ideas?

thanks a mil

Also, what's the best way to drop the car, I don't want it too low or to break something or have the body fitting strangely, among other odd things that could happen...
...

Another question: does anyone know if there are models of 4th gen Honda Preludes?

Have you checked in the FAQs? Do a search for "lowering" it should come up with something. I think you should drop it and get some big wheels and a fat arse muffler for it, it would look sweet! You keeping the rest of the body/interior stock?

i'm doing the tamiya evo6 at the moment.sprayed the car using tamiya's metallic black and now waiting for the paint to harden.
Believe that it should look nice with the metallic black....can't wait to see my final result!!

Yes, versions made by Fujimi and Aoshima. Can be hard to find from time to time, but they are out there... HTH!

The EVO's look great with aftermarket wheels, just look at the thread on my EVO 4! 5 spoke wheels really suit them, nice and open spokes.
If you can get your hands on one of the Fujimi exhausts it will look great. See my Skyline in the gallery for the A'pexi and the one in EVO 4 thread is the Big Caliber Muffler #11051!



Also, Tamiya Telephonica blue would look great!
