looks nice, good to see another red one!

im unsure on the lip man, cause your car is already pretty low and even seems to rake forward a touch, so the lip might just imbalance the look of it?

removing the stock wing will make it seem lower at the back too, maybe thats whats throwing me off haha

i think a TTE lip is fine..not feelin the wheels too much..but it definately has potential..i say for a cheap mod..remove the pinstripe..it doesnt look right..

btw..philly..looks good bro..keep it up..go lower if possible..im a sucker for slammed cars

hm true on the pinstripe, i like philly's but not sure of the gold on red with the chrome wheels.

took a couple of mine yesterday after i washed it and cleaned up the wheels- then it pissed down with rain today haha i also got a realignment today and they took a little bit of camber out front and rear so wheels are a tad more flush..

yeh, should be lower, both front guards are missing their paint on the top 3" or so each side from rubbing, and i dont want to go any stiffer on suspension settings so im gonna try get them rolled a bit more if possile...for now though..and my driveway slopes backwards haha

lol yea the pinstripe is coming off for sure! just need to get to the auto body store and buy an eraser. the rear wing is coming off as well...im thinking an RMM 3 piece will make its way there sooner than later.

and yea, the wheels arent my favorite also, but thats what i have to work with for now. until i can afford to replace them that is. i need to change up all the chrome on them....im thinking about colormatching the hub only (3 piece wheels) i think that would set it off....

For some reason I thought the pinstripe was painted on with these cars. Is it vinyl?

only learning from the best if it wasnt for your car mine would be stock lol. i can never buy a daily/beater bc it always turns into me buying stuff.

so today some friends and i met up for a lil local meet. all the fast cars wanted to take backroads and handle their cars im like PLEASE NO but go anyways. I finally lived up to my quote the guy behind me told me i was scraping soo much on every bump sparks were coming from every angle. i havent even lowered it yet
