My ride...

Please tell me what you guys think! As you can see, I'm not very flashy. I don't like chrome, decals, big wings, etc...

I still want to swap out the tails for ES version and get eyelids. As soon as a quality CF hood comes out, I'm there.

I went to Discount Tire to repair a flat, and walked out with these! Funny how that works...

They gave me $200 trade-in for my factory wheels. Not much, but saves me the hassel of dumping them on eBay. The 5Zigen were $190 each, and the Nitto's were $110 each. Then there was a $50 rebate on the package.

Yeah, I'm getting a 50/50 split on wether people think black or gunmetal on my car. I have a flat black kind of personality and would probably get my whole car in it if Mitsu offered it!!! LOL.

I live in California, and unfortunately you CAN'T tint the front windows... so most people who do, do it a few shades lighter hoping cops will be more forgiving when handing out tickets. I usually will just roll down my windows all the way whenever I see a cop cruising behind me.

The black wheels on silver doesn't quite look right to me. Tends to make the wheels stand out a bit much. Since you say you are a subdued type of guy (so am I), I'd go with some gunmetals if you are willing to trade those out.

I'm not a fan of the lighter shade tint for the front windows, but if you have legal reasons for it I'm not one to stop you. My tint is illegal. Yours still look good.

I probably sound like I'm downing your ride but your ride still looks nice. Plus, with the performance mods you have your car will kick my cars butt.

I zippie tied it to a bar behind the glove compartment. Fits perfect.

Hmmm.... looks like the consensus is that my car would look better with gunmetals? I'll think about it...
