Looking good. I was just thinking the other day I had never seen your car. Love the deflectors.

What kind of wheels you after?

why do people prefer the JDM deflectors?

as far as i can see they sit outside the window. i think the heko ones looks much better as they sit in the groove of the window.

just my opinion but maybe i havent seen the JDM ones properly :lol:

nice car m8. should have got a vivid blue one though :lol:

Because jdm ones are MUCH bigger, and therefore deflect the air and rain better. Meaning they function better. And personally prefer how they look.

I was thinking Rota Torques in gun metal grey. (They look great :lol:) Or if i want something cheaper i was thinking of Rota Grids in black (no red lip).

Has anyone tried colouring in the brand on your tyre in white permanent marker?

Hmm... that would look good on a Vivid Blue with white wheels. White "Nokian"... *drool*

I coloured them in on my last car. Looked good, but went yellowy after a week or so, and eventually flakes off. That was using actual tyre paint so I doubt permanent marker would be better. If you keep on top of it though it does look good

Awesome :lol: well ive ordered a tyre marker, going to see what it looks like when i get my new wheels :lol: "Yokohama" in white. :lol: :lol:

I WAS going to install my floorlighting kit today (bought from h7lfw. powered them up at work and they look great! The LEDs nearly melted my eyes they are that bright :lol:) but its decided to start raining again...damnit! So its now a job for tomorow :lol:

Also coming, a video/audio of what an EP2 sounds like with an AEM induction kit with standard exhaust. I keep seeing people on here asking what it sounds like having an induction kit on your car.

Il find a way of mounting my phone to my dash so you guys can have a drive-along video+audio through my town hahaha.

As you say, tyre shine and lowered. What you gona lower her on? Springs/Coilovers? I'd say coilovers and slammed.

Looks great though :)
