    so yeah, its pretty stock, Ive only had it for about 7 months or something, but I have put an AEM CAI and an APEXI n1 on it, a little bit of paint on the inside and a different shifter. Its hard making your car nice with no money haha. next for sure mod is painting the inside of my headlights black. after that comes the ralliart grille, and after that, I want to make it a really strong n/a build, but who knows.

    to each his own man, Im not a big fan of the new ones haha. and the hubcaps look really whack, I like the look of black against silver more than fake plastic. but yeah, I can get some of my intake. and thanks for the compliment mitsuman.

    No prob... I like the 7th gen better also.
    But thats how I feel... no reason to hate right.
    Good luck with modding... and if you got any questions just ask... there is a lot of people on here with a lot of good info!

    haha exactly. as far as the outside goes, as soon as possible Im gonna either get the ralliart JDM grill, or the evo 9 style one, and black out the inside out the headlights. later on when i get a job, I want to get some performance mods first (RRM pulley, piggyback ecu, new clutch, stuff along those lines.) but after that comes the evo style tail lights(maybe), rims for sure, and I wanna make a better lip, but who knows. its for sure gonna stay wingless though. I do want to upgrade the suspension too, but not for the drop, I just want a good handling set up-sway bars, strut bars, all that stuff. oh and Im gonna order a vortex generator and a short antenna today =]

    try to put rims on it first. it's amazing how a nice set of rims really makes the whole car look better.

    true, but the rims I want are crazy expensive, and plus, they're the last things I need. Id much rather get a bunch of nice performance mods and shit than get a +$1000 set of rims. I dont really mind how the steelies look for now at all.
