thefire's 05 ES ... continued

ok so this is basically an add-on to my previous thread which can be found here https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=296276
edit: pics of system added to this post and two other pics at the bottom of the page in a different post
that thread has all of my mods from start to finish on the first page except for the ones that i am about to post which are most current with black tails and a s2000 antenna. for those that dont read the first post of the previous thread, no the hood and trunk are not c/f they are black, no im not cheap i do have the money for c/f i just like the darker look. and i decided not to get the roof painted black..at least for now. also the only other exterior mods i might do include black headlights, tint, eyelids. thanks for looking and thanks for comments in advance.





these last two are without the tails

ummmm it needs a drop, i dont like the black tails, like the red better, and to me the rims could be better. roof needs to be black for what you are doing. if you "have the money" as you say.

You should get a Ralli Art lip kit next and the stock ralliart headlights. Looks good so far.

i think you should take the evo wing off, i dont thing it flows very well with the curvy lines of the car, then you should black out the tails instead of the black tails, i also think that would look way better, just my opinion though man

The evo wing looks huge compared to the rest of the car. Doesnt flow wel, maybe a lip kit can help it out, and maybe a drop. Other than that, good job.

Tail lights are fine. I agree with the drop. Until I would take that big chrome mitsu badge off the trunk and tint wouldn't hurt. Otherwise looking good

Dang, do buy on that Civic! Grab it up! If you have any questions about the EJ coupe, let me know. I've got a '95 Ex coupe and a lightweight '92 VX that I'm turboing. Nice higher altitude pics.

Not a fan of the black hood and trunk, cf would look better

Car looks nice though, a drop and/or lip kit would really help offset the wing. Long as you like it, keep up the work

Good work so far. I like the black tails. I'm tired of all the stock red tails. Almost all cars have red tails. Maybe if red is your accent color or a red car. I also agree that the Evo wing on an 04+ lancer is too big. Unless you are lowered and have lips or a body kit, it just doesn't look as good as it does on the 02-03. Springs are cheap and most likely you won't blow your shocks. I've tortured mine with B&G Springs and they're fine.
