the front end looks weird compared to the back, so the car doesn't really flow right now imo
i have a couple things coming up, just waiting on parts in the mail then i have to order a couple other things next week.

SORRY, I KNOW I SUCK AT EXPLAINING THINGS. i'll try take a picture if i remember tomorrow.

alright that sounds kinda confusing but just look under your bumper and itll make sense.
idk how else to explain it, i can get a pic of it if you want

thanks haha. it looks a bit different as it sits right now, im still waiting on a couple things to do a full updated photoshoot, but here's a teaser


you can mount the wink mirror a couple of ways. you can either take out your sun visors and mount it using those holes, or get the windshield mounting kit like i did, which uses clear silicone to adhere brackets to the windshield:


if you do use the mounting kit, be sure you put the brackets further back than i did. it sits too close to the sun visors so i cant use them anyways. it doesn't vibrate at all on my setup, but the mirror itself rattles at certain frequencies when my sub hits.

i'll be keeping my sun visors as i occasionally use them; so i will just drill new holes for both sides of the 5-panel mirror. it may be tight, but i'll figure something out.. i have a sub (10") in the back as well, so i'm expecting some vibration on certain jams
you're not gonna be able to use the visors if you mount it like that unless you build custom brackets so it sits further back. if you see the pic i posted of my interior i already can't put the visor all the way down. the mirror tends to rattle a bit with my single 12" but it's only at certain frequencies. i dont think theres a way to get rid of it though ;/

Nice build thread!
Dark rims ftw! Great job on the dark headlights, makes me want to do it too.
What happened to the red tails?

Interior looks really good with the Pioneer unit, looks like it was meant to be. Love the steering wheel red carbon fiber stickers, get a JDM hazard to set it off
As for the rear, even though I'm not a huge fan of smoked tails, I think that and the AJR Carbon Fiber trunk garnish would make it flow better (especially cause of the dark headlights). If not the AJR, maybe color match it to SSM like the GD's, and the smoked tails.
Car looks real good!

You never put the red dot "Jazz" emblem on?

i want to keep things looking clean/stock inside and removing the sun visors will surely break my personal tradition
Just do the windshield mounts like I did lol

Thanks! I took the vinyl off out of impulse, but I might redo them while I wait my 3-5 weeks for my JDM tails :| the dark rims are going around april if everything goes as planned, but I'm keeping that a secret
I have a couple things planned for the interior, I still need the trim ring for the headunit and I'm gonna wrap the some pieces with cf. I do want the jdm hazard switch though lol
I was considering smoked tails but I'm doing the jdm base tails instead. And the dark rims are going soon, so I'm planning ahead lol. I want that ajr piece though, but I have been considering the garnish too. After rims though
I did for awhile, but the tape sucked and I never bothered with it again.
