Congratulations....those visors look sharp!
Yes, go for the rims and tires first; it makes the car look so different right away.

Visors look great! Congrats!

But I think you should go intake first, save the rims and tires so you can drop the ride too

If you wait for the intake, then that gives you more time to decide what wheel/tire combo you want. I'm sure you would want a combo that you're going to like for a long time, unless you're a wheel whore and have the funds to switch wheels every 3 months lol

Gave you some Mugen Rep! The visors look great! What is next? Mugen door sills and racing pedals were what I added after the Mugen visors

Nice mugen visors!

Is it normal with mat painted doorhandles? I can't remember seeing that anywhere else. Looks good though...

Perhaps because it is a based model, the door handles are not painted body color.

correct, it is a base model. i didn't see the point in paying the extra couple thousand on options i didnt need :P


as for whats next in the mugen department, i was thinking of getting some info on the mugen sport coilovers, they're just what i'm looking for :P either that or a set of mugen rims!

I usually don't like visors but those are definitely making me change my mind.

Well, with the money you saved getting a base model you should also get the full Mugen body kit. That will be really sick!

Please note that his car is a Canadian version which usually differs from US models. For example, the US Sports Aut models come with paddle shifters, but the Canadian version don't.
