A CAI would probably be fine there, unless the water was actually up to the doors or something.

I liked the rims, volk style. Not so much the headlights. Is the plastic wrinkled, or do your lights need resurfacing? Also, it seems like you would want to add another layer or two of yellow for it to really look JDM because the yellow just isn't yellow enough to look intentional right now. I'm not trying to be mean, but it looks like aged toy car window plastic right now. Maybe consider trying blue film or that purple/yellow color change stuff. Yellow seems really hard to pull off on anything other than a Lexus IS, Infinity G35/37 or various flat black track-***** cars (usually honda, acura and the like).

+1

and are the headlights tinted yellow, or is that the stick-on film? i think it looks pretty nice but the chrome of the grill really kills it.
