Peep the whip! (look at my car)

Yes, it's been done before, but mine looks the best I bought some coupe 19" wheels from CruiseX (a member on this site) and wrapped them in 235/35 at the front, 245/35 at the rear. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I know many have complained about the rear wheels rubbing with a lowered car, but mine is lowered on Eibachs and it has yet to rub. I hope you like it.

Looks nice but clear corners, tint and a bigger drop is in order. Trunk setup looks great

Thanks, but no way am I doing clear corners because everyone else is doing it. I really don't think clears look any better. And I actually like the contrast of the orange light against diamond graphite. As for the slammed look, I outgrew that with my old Civic. As it is, I can just fit 2 fingers in the fender gap at the front...and I have skinny fingers You are right about the tint though. The black leather is like sitting in a hot tub in this South Florida sun. I will probably get that done in a couple of weeks.

Thanks, guys.

Where did you get that trunk spoiler? And, are those the Eibach Pro Kit springs?

Loks better than I thought. I always have mixed feelings
about OEM 19. Nice & light, Looks like PIAA super Roza without the lip,
but kind of resembles the type of belly button called "Outie".

Great looking wheels with a nice subtle drop. I also love the rear lip spoiler. Are you considering the front chin spoiler? That could set off the car really nicely. I love it on my '05 sedan...

Very nice. Just get tint and you're set. The drop is perfect. What springs you have and how much was that lip spoiler?
