Finally started on my car

Well after having my car for a few years i've finally started to work on it. Threw in a Injen CAI and clear corners first, then had it lowered with Eibach Sportline springs and tinted the tails, and finally yesterday got my kit put on and my Work Emotion XD9 wheels.

The wheels are 18x9 +18 front 18x10 +20 offset back..Falken Tires 245/40 and 235/40.

Not sure what I should do next..maybe 06+ projectors?

Neeew pics!



























spacers soon to come

This is all just my opinion, but here's what I'd do.

1) Debadge the trunk, atleast the I N F I N I T I letters.
2) Get some spacers to make the wheels more flush. I like the rims + lug choice.
3) I really like the front bumper. I'd paint the mesh black to not make it as noticeable.
4) 06+ Headlight are nice, but semi-expensive. I painted my 04's black and love them.
5) Your from IL like me, 30% tint all around is legal, maybe give that a go.
6) It'd be nice to be more low, but I know how our streets are, so I don't blame you.
7 If you haven't yet, check out Chicagoz.com. We've got some good people over there.

get some powdercoated black mesh.
expensive but worth it!

spray painted mesh doesnt last very long.
no mesh = cheap looking.
