I ordered my cf splitters and cf diffuser yesterday.

I actually meant that I had $8k left on my loan, and got $22k for the car, so was +$14k

sweet...
yeah I parted my car out...the wheels, the sways, skyline door sills, nismo shift knob, rs*r exhaust, intake.

i just left the springs (expensive ones at that) on the car, since the labor to remove them wasn't worth it... and still ended up getting what I did, so was very happy.

the mods ended up netting me another $3k

Do you guys think eyelids for the headlights look cheap? I'm trying to make my car look a bit more aggressive and i don't want to spend $$$ on the european lights. I actually don't mind the orange on the light either.

And i'm thinking of getting a roof spoiler, but i'm torn between where i should get a painted one or if it is CF just leave it as is.

I have had JDM Front ends on two of my Integras, so you know what my recommendation would be. Oh yeah, I had CTR headlights on a Civic too.

I'd get a rear spoiler before the roof one. The roof one is a nice addition but IMO not absolutely necessary.

I was wondering the same thing....except I hate the orange in the headlights (E90).

I want to get clears, but with xenon's it costs too much imo....
