And this is the route you have chosen:

Dude you had so much to say about my car so I took the liberty of going to your page and checking out your ride. And God damn, you really should not voice your opinion so strongly brother. Your car has a long way to go as well. Humble yourself.

Thanks I hear ya bro.

and... I mean yea, Xxr's aren't Vossen but define cheap lol. After wheels and tires, valve stems, hubcentric rings, tuner lugs, mount and balance I'm into my wheels for close to 2k

Less than you would spend on many nicer wheels... but in my world man that ain't cheap.


$700 for coilovers might be cheapER than a popular brand, but its an investment thats serving a purpose perfectly.

so on and so on...

thanks for your input tho

did I say that I didn't? the last quote tells you the route I'm taking and was suggesting that you do the same. I'll apologize for being a bit harsh, but personally I like seeing quality builds and hate seeing a ton of knock-off ebay ****.

I hear you man but every car is unique. We cant all mod our cars with the same s***.
At the end of the day bro, I LOVE MY CAR.

It may not have the best parts, but its running extremely well and if for some reason something breaks I will fix it, like I always do with my cars. I dont make them shine and run like crap, the first thing I did to my G was change the clutch, flywheel, pads, and tune up. I aint a hacker bro, just have a set budget.

I guess I can respect that to an extent. We may never agree on knockoff parts but at least you didn't put overlays on it and cover it in 1,000 lbs of plastidip.

I don't really see anything wrong with that G. The ebay coilovers should be swapped out for something better, that factory spoiler needs to go, and the clear corners are pretty rice but everything else looks ok to me. Whats wrong with the exhaust?
