good gawd
please lower your car before you do anyyyyyyyyyyything else
not trying to be a dick, but it wouldve looked a thousand times better lowered on stock wheels than putting those g35's on and keeping that horrendous ride height

how dare you
just kidding. this is true.
since i need a new suspension, my original plan was to slam the car on the stock wheels. then i went to try and pass new jersey's **** inspection and failed for tires (tires wernt too bad but you know, they HAD to fail me for something) so i picked up the infinity rim and tire package from a dude named Hector for pretty much what i would have spent on new tires for the stock wheels. couldnt pass
but this is my promise to you motegineon....

i painted a new bumper and fixed the Greddy lip. figured i wasnt in a position to spend $300 on another one. the lip was in three pieces so i cut up my old bumper and used a few pieces to fill in the holes and used this urethane glue that sands like body filler when it dries.
for some extra JDM flair i had this sticker made up to kinda poke fun at all the honda kids in town with their "i <3 my honda" and "i <3 JDM"
so this is hows its looking as of right now

i was getting pretty sick of trying to keep the G rims clean. so i gave them a good scuff and painted them satin black and im in love with the car all over again.

thanks guys. the rims are indeed still black and are holding up great, considering i took a decent amount of time to prep each rim.
that hood was just about $600 with the shipping. but since my first s14 needed it it was a no brainer to pick it up. the thing weighs nothing compared to that heavy stock one...which just sits in my room
