At first I was like WTF? But I actually like that. I painted the top strip of my grill blue and was getting ready to switch it to pink (just waiting on my rims). I might actually consider doing the lip too....

New Pictures!!


Hopefully Going to be buying a new set of wheels pretty soon,
just narrowing my choices down.
Being a student, they prob wont be anything to crazy or expensive. Most likely replica wheels of some sort
haha
But anyways im thinking maybe Drag Dr-20's 16x7 or konig remembers also in 16x7.

Anyways here are my pictures that i went out and took in my spare time,

Nooo I like the wheels you have! Question though... are you a base model + wing and white mirror caps, or a sport + base bumper and headlights?

edit: no sideskirts...so im thinking base?

haha yes its a base, but here in canada we have a few models
the dx lx and sport
the dx is the basic base, hubcaps and no AC,
the Lx the one i have has the wing and has real wheels, although they are really ugly dishes pretty much, Also the lx has AC
but i really do want sideskirts

I still think having another set of wheels would be nice so that i could change it up every now and then, i wouldnt sell the ones i have now though cause i do like them.

Hey i only rub the front wheels sometimes if i hit a huge bump on a highway or road.
Other then that i have no issues with normal driving, and with turning. when i do rub it is not even hard. I have rolled the front fenders slightly and it has stopped even the tiny rub.
the back has never rubbed for me
