Car looks good.

OKAY!! soo.. this is what the car looked like the day i picked it up.
yeah... those are the pics right after i put the plates on from the shop...now life story for the tegg ill try not to forget anything... well i had the spoiler on for.. hmm probably 3 days b4 i took it off becuase one.. i couldnt see ---- out the back window, and 2 i just wasnt digging the look of it..
so first thing i did to the car was put my stereo in it, and of course a dampachi... NO! hes not for sale, fawk yourself lol
Cut out the back and put in some bad *** 6X9s
and got some door speakers aswell of course becuase the car didnt come with any speakers
next came the corner lights, i hate the clear ones they look homo, i tried to find the all amber ones but no luck so got the sock ones instead for now.
next i got the tires replaced on the 2nd set of rims that came with the car and put those on for a bit.. didnt last long with the rubbing on the struts..
and so next i got a set of stock rims witch im licking at the moment, theyll be on the car untill after winter when i get my rota flashbacks, and dropped the back a little bit more, and put on some PSWD JDM towhooks, and i had to throw the shocker on there, chicks digg it lol
And so i had the exhaust on the car still that came on it at this time.. got pulled over 9 times for it, 7 warnings and 2 tickets.. so i said enough is enough, cops are douche bags so gave me a good excuse to buy a new exhaust, put magnaflow exhaust on looking like a "stock" set up
(put your knight stick in that ********)
Heres a picture of the old exhaust
Next was to tackle the ugly red painted interior... gloss black... also had to get a new cluster becuase i broke the other one lol, and the guy who had it b4 me painted the inside of it white, i actualy LOVE it at night becuase it looks like everything is glowing, looks awsome!
so anyways... we go from this....
To this....
Got a set of the "amber" bumper signals aswell, got some aftermarket fogs for the bottom witch will be comming of for spring to make from for... TURBOOO
so then i was sitting in my basement one day and was bored as all hell so i decided to paint my valve cover
.. 10 hours latter....
I also painted my intake tube real quick to match better aswell.
so after doing that a few weeks latter.. another brilliant idea... lets paint the roof!!
...i cant find any pics of that ... but moving on...
next was a C-pillar brace and white\red JDM taillights, buut instead of using the pillar at the back i made it into a B-Pillar
witch i also didnt take pics of at the time.. -_-
so i picked up some strut tower bars, (front and rear) and amber side markers for my fenders. and Yellow headlight bulbs, i had my 8000k in at this time. also got an OBX header.
so we got all that jazz installed
looks beast? oh its all cuz of the driver.. hes crazy
yupp ^ hell whoop your *** at king of the hill for real.
annnyways lol... next i had to paint the hatch black aswell to make it go with the rest of the car, also got a stock spoiler, red acura symbol, and i pin striped the side of the car to give it a little more of a look. also took my back seats out totaly to make room for the roll bar in the future.
yes.. its a carbon fiber hood.. lol i get asked everytime just so we clear that up
and the last few things, haddd to get a fire extinguisher JUST incase.. id rather have one and not need it, then not have one and need it... plus it looks kewwl
and also put a harness in aswell, i like it alot better then the stock seatbelt, taking corners and ramps are MUCH more fun when you can corner with a supra rofl.
I kept the stock belt in JUST INCASE a cop wants to have a bitch fit, how ever iv only been pulled over once since having this in and it was by a chick for my bright yellow headlights, she liked the car so she let me go no problems at all, even chatted with me for a bit about cars, (she was a cutie so i had too) lol.
and the most recent thing iv put on was the lower tie bar. controll arms are next to go on.
and as she sits now...
well thats pretty much it besides for the small things... 9 leds for dome lighting, and 12 leds for license plate lighting and 9 leds under the dash... cuz everyone always ends up dropping ---- and cant find it.. lol
im hoping to do a big build over the winter months so i should be doing a build thread then enjoy

what springs do you have? are you sure you didnt mix up the front and rears?
its not worth slamming a car. i'm doing an engine swap right now on a DA and we had a hard enough time getting it up on the hoist. the whole underside of the car i scraped to high hell, dented cross member, dented header, dented/scraped exhaust, worn out ball joints, tie rod ends and wheel bearings.....not to mention body damage.

Quick question, where did you mount the harness ends? hope something sturdy...since even at a low speed of 40km/h getting into an accident, there are enormous forces acting upon your body creating great force on the seatbelts.
