so far me and my broski did all the work. the progress is very much a snail pace...
but i'd like to put a decent set of coils and get rid of 18'' enkei that came with the car...
btw it just hit 30K:tehe: miles!!!
any comments would be appreciated :):mredface::mangel:

Nice car, don't see many with side stripes. It adds something to the look. Mind if I ask what was ricey about your car before?

yeah i think there arent many EPs with pinstripes.(decal).
before the project it had the "Halo angel eye" projecters with LED lights every where with a crappy shift knob (changed it with the Spoon Duracon black)

the car still has "after market" front and rear bumper lights that i want to replace with OEM.
also it didnt have HFP lips which was pain in the a** to install for a beginner like myself.

The car looked pretty good in pics above.

So you took off the HFP lip kit?

Also those rear tail lights are not after market. From the looks they are OEM from the 04-05 EP.

we can all give you advise but always fallow what you really want.. the build is for you.not us...
but trust these guys they know what there talking about..get rid of the 18s and get 16s and a set of racelands.if you can't afford the expensive stuff.

The grids are nice but I'm a big fan of the polished slipstreams :)

My SSM came with pinstripes too and I shaved em off lol But the look is growing on me, maybe I should have left them on...

personally im not a fan of pinstripes. usally a dealer thing where they try to bleed you for a few more bucks- or give them that much more room to negotiate. my pinstripe is run straight arcoss the top of the fender and ends under the rear quarter window. (yours, im afraid to say looks worse than mine.) my driver side door was blended by the dealer i bought mine from and the idiot taped cleared over half the pinstripe. so im screwed. you should wait for a hot day and get that thing off.

your car looks dope tho. hfp kit is crazy sweet. your wheels are ok, but i think the grids would look alot nicer. a little color from the stock bumper lights and some amber side markers will give it some nice contrast.

very nice car man. good luck.
