I miss the gold rims and how did you wreck? Why didn't you replace the hood? How much did it cost to fix?

Good thing you got it fixed back.I dont like the c5's except for the classic chrome finish and in 19's.They arent doing nothing for your es3 + need spacers badly.The mesh wheels dont fit the es3 look either.Not luxurious enough.Just my .02 as a very active tuner.

I like the exhaust tips and the new wheels. It looks good. I'm happy to see that you fixed her up and put her back on the road. Paint that fender and she'll be as good as new.

We'll I got in a car accident about 3 - 4 weeks ago haven't had time to come on CL to post up pictures untill just recently, I was driving home on a 1 lane street and it was raining really hard and it was dark. Then I hit a big puddle and my car hydroplaned into a pole.. Good thing I wasnt really injured but couldnt say the same for my car. I took the car home, parked it in the garage and went car shopping and found everything from a shop in baldwin park area for about 250. ( front bumper + fender + headlight) I bought my corners from ebay because it was cheaper to buy the all clear one instead of getting OEM one. haha... I also bought a new set of Hid because I thought my other ones blew so now I have 2 sets of hids as you can see in the picture. 12k headlight + 10k fogs.

Enough about my accident...

I still have my Gold C5 but trying to sell them and my Axis mesh rims (painted gunmetal. I dont remember the brand of the exhaust but I can check. I wanted to do a oval dual exhaust but I did not want to go and cut out the spare tire and put a sheet metal over it just to put 2 oval exhaust on.... I did not replace my hood yet because I was checking around to see if I could find a carbon fiber one or a Oem painted black one. My car is a auto Btw (lexified14) and I dont plan on putting nitrous on my car just yet I need a couple more moddifications before I do. I dont want my car to turn out like that crx..... and that front lip is a home made lip :] It was something me and some of my other friends tried on our cars... haha.. I dont think it came out to bad. Even if it did It only cost $8 for 2 front lips :] we tried it on 2 cars (92 SC400 + my car).
