Some 19" Trafficstar RTS' would like nice on there 
. Sounds like you have a decent budget for mods, should turn out nice.
I think I just bought an OEM Pioneer Head Unit from you on Ebay
. At least the user names match

i know what you mean too. what i am saying is i knew the stuff you bring in you don't make 100% profit. you just take your fair share.
my wife keeping saying it is a 1998, hopefully with simple rims, suspension, stereo, kit, accessories, body and paint will bring it to something that she won't complain it is a 10 year old car.

Your wife is like my wife. Every once in a while my wife tells me she misses the RX.

too shame to post 100% stock on cl...
please don't count g35 wheels as a mod. i know some peeps like them, i use it because i don't have any stock wheels to run.
the grille it is from a 03 sport design, too lazy to chrome it myself.
the tails is the jp non led ones.
i want to mod my dad's new camry too. rims and drop will make it look clean.

it is funny that i never work on the car again until today. i was gonna post some updates and someone already bump the thread for me.
today i remove all the ugly stickers and the safety check sticker on the back bumper. i started putting in an alarm and remote start. because my wife complains the range on the stock one is no good.
the worse thing is i notice 2 new dings on the quarter panel
. damn it my wife doesn't take care of the car.

got some stuff done this past week. i installed a remote start alarm, and since most of the interior pieces is off the car i took the time to install the chrome handles and lights too.
these are pics of the alarm wiring. those who is in the 12volt trade probably figure out what i did.
since i am took it apart i ran some speaker wires too for the stereo later on, i like to loom them togther so i looks factory
the pics for the chrome handle with the lights. all of them i used a molex plug so i can disconnect them like oem if i need to take them apart.
that is all for now. i didn't put the door panel back on yet, it is going to get some tint done tomorrow. afterwards i can put it back and my wife could enjoy it for a little while.

okay finally got the tint done, i went with the exact same green tint the japan guys used on their cars such as trafficstar
i guess it is too dark can't really see the color. i will try again during day time.
so after that i put the door panels back on. probably stop for now and may be some small stuff here and there next year.

Nice work! That's the true sign of a craftsmen when the stuff noone will ever see is done properly with care and attention to detail.
Door handles look great, I almost wish I had white so I could do the chrome handles. I think they might be too much chrome on my black w/chrome wheels and grill but it looks beautiful on white.
