FINALLY! Pics of my IP 05 sedan
You have the most modded 05 on the board good work. Can we get some 03-04 owners that are interested in buying a carbon fiber hood to post some offers on the hood I think that if he gets enough offers he will get rid of it.

Thanks for the comments guys
I know I know, the hood is only there because I'm test fitting it for a company that made it and it's not carbon fiber 1 hood. The fitment is terrible and thank god I didn't actually pay for it. I'm going to return it and put my stock hood back on.
I'm on D2 coilovers and it's at a little higher than the lowest setting, maybe 3/4 of it down. 32 way damper adjustable, rebuildable, and height adjustable.
The wheels are my secret brand I don't like to tell people b/c it keeps them guessing
but they are 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear all around +35 offset with NO RUBBING ISSUES!! I am however running 245/35 in the front and 255/35 in the rear to keep it safe. If I went any wider tires in the rear, I would probably hit the fenders.
The exhaust is SPUGEN exhaust. I don't know if you guys are familiar with them but it's a spugen titanium exhaust. If you're interested in getting it, don't. I've had a bad experience with them and everytime I look at it it pisses me off b/c it looks identical to the megan racing universal exhaust or some other cheapo one from ebay. Megan racing test pipe and Megan Racing Y pipe and custom piping from that to the mufflers.
MikeMike - How did you know my car was loud? Or was that just a figure of speech like..oh that looks dope or something?
Any other questions, let me know, the hood is going so no worries. I hate having people ask me "hey why is your hood black" or "ewww how come your hood is not painted"

I was saying it's loud like extremely NOTICEABLE...White with Gold rims just POPS....especially with that black carbon fiber hood.
How's the SMPD? Never really had any experiences with them, thank god.

I would put your stock hood back on, it looks hundred times better then the CF hood.

I AGREE!! This is a sedan, what are you doing? And you put on generic brand rims and a CF hood that doesnt even come close to fitting?? Put it back to stock, Jeez! Look at VodkaRocket's car.. so simple and classy..
What's next? Lambo doors?
