Installed the body kit and bought some ugly rims. Don't ask me why i bought those rims, i rushed it and made a bad desicion!

I wanted to get rid of the stock rims so bad, i bought the first set of rims i came across with lol! Silly me ._.

And my Current Set up:

Changed the fugly rims to 20" Axis Shine. They don't look that big, some people have asked me if they are 19" and i freaking love them

I took some of these pictures getting my car out of the shop. Some Azn chick backed into my car and cracked my bumper. But her insurance paid for the repairs

Btw I am dropped on GF210 1" front 1.2" rear... Need coilovers ;(

Car is mostly a Garage queen. I barely drive it and it's mostly just for show. I've put 635 miles on it in the last 5 months >.>
The only engine mods i have are:

AEM CAI
Full HKS Exhaust
Turbo XS Test pipes
Stillen Headers

The black rims you had on wouldn't have looked so bad if they were painted completely black (no chrome lip). I def liked them better than the current rims though. Not hatin', just constructive criticism.

s'all good, I understand the body kit is pretty aggressive and not everybody likes that. I personally love the jp bumper. As for the sides, they are amuse.

I dont know why there is a large gap under my screen >.> I thought it was because the screen was slightly smaller than the stock radio lol :x if thats not how its supposed to be ill probably try to readjust it.

As for the rims, to me, axis shine are probably the most beautiful (inexpensive) rims.

And yes, the Z is the garage queen!! because i only have 3" clearance to the ground so driving around town is a pain in the a$$. That and i'd rather use my other toy anyway!

Me with my CBR600RR Phoenix :O

It's all good man, always do what you like, rather than listen to other people tell you how they want your car to look.

On a side note, beautiful bike! Wish I could sum up the courage to learn how to ride one haha, seems like all my friends ride bikes.

You need to get the correct kit.
I forgot what kit this was, but here's a pic.

As for the exterior, .......

Ahh lol i thought that was the correct kit, i did think it was a little weird seeing how alot of people in here had the same screen without the same gap, but i never really gave it much thought. I guess i'll go shop around for the correct kit.
thanks

I actually used this site alot to get info, i i always read negative comments about how aggressive JP kit looked like. But I still went with it because it looked unique and different.

This is my first bike, i started riding in December, so i'm still a rookie haha, but it's really fun!
