haha yeah the garage is pretty dirty. its got all the boxes fro mthe kit and everything. ive been searching for some rims. i really like the volk time attacks but to get a set or volks in general i dont think i can afford... i really like 5 to 6 spoke with a gloss black finish. ill put another pick on here fro mwhen i first got the car, kind of bad quality and the light was kinda bad but here it is.

That makes more sense, to have a two-tone look. Just having a single black panel of a car looks like something you would see on a civic dx.
