Tikiman's slow but steady build
I found this forum by accident while looking for some info about Accolade body kits. I figured I've been on here long enough to start my own thread of my car. Enjoy!




The first thing i installed was an evo wing^

^ Next I ordered an accolade kit but that took forever to come in so in the meantime i ordered a Tsudo catback exhaust. Thanks to Davidmitsusrock for answering the questions i had with the exhaust. It is a great product, excellent fitment, quality, and sound.


^ After more than a year of waiting my kit finally came in two giant boxes. the kit that i ordered was an evo VII extreme kit w/ evo IX rear diffuser.





^ I got the whole car painted at once w/ the kit installed. the fitment according to the body shop was very snug and was almost perfect.
I hope you guys enjoy the pics even though photography is not my forte as you can tell. And i know i desperatley need some rims, money is tight when ur in college, and im kinda waitin for the tires to wear out. Feel free to leave any comments, questions, or suggestions. thanks for viewing

pics dont do it justice im sure. im not a fan of body kits. but your next upgrade should be some rims and lowring springs. fill that big whole up where those stocker hubs r at.

I'll get some rims then i'll think about the springs, b/c of the kit the car is way to low for the roads that i drive on.

I finally, finally got some rims!
they are 17" Motegi SP-10s w/ Kumho Ecsta AST 205/45R17 tires.


I didnt like the silver "inner lip" so i painted it black.

I also painted the lower middle portion of my front bumper a while back.

Im waitin on some wheel lock that i ordered before i put these guys on. they should be on the car before the weekend ends. As always comments welcome.

pretty cool build man, can't wait to see the rims on the car. They'll look great with your black and white theme
now you just need an intercooler to fill that huge hole in the front bumper
