Because you buy a car for it's looks, that's what you're paying for, the design and effort gone into making it. If you go to change the looks by sticking on cheap after market shit then I would surgest to go buy a car you actually like.

Not only that, these parts look cheap and shitty, and alot of people think adding them makes your car faster. When actually it just makes it stand out for people to laugh at you.

Why spend money on lights, bodykits etc when you could spend it on engine performance parts.

#60915 I would get it... not much needs to be gone through and changed. the color, hood, and dropped is all it needs. but the color is all a matter of personal taste.

how much will it cost there to repaint the whole body?

here, if you let somebody do the job it will cost you 500dollars including all materials and paint needed...

Hood cost around $150

#62994 sqsi had the right idea!!!


I'd get oem head lights clear stanley corners, CF hood and hatch, paint the roof black, repaint the gril, lip, mirrors and sidskirts black. Get jdm thin side moldings, dark tint and polished slips. If all this was done, I think the pink would work pretty good! :thumb:

that would look sexy with the pink. You even save some money and keep that hood and paint it black too. The paint the lips black too. Keep the rest pink!
