New guy here, new body kit, hood, pearl paint job. What do ya think???

Hey everyone, as the title says, it's a 2.2 not the the SS, but SS bumper, rk hood and lip kit, molded into the body, we also had the entire car painted, it has summit white base with blue pearl in the paint, 5% tint(too dark) but it looks sick, some stereo work, eibach sportline kit, 18" rims... Not much in the performance department yet but many things in store, turbo kit is a must but we are out of funds for now... Hope you all like it ,we are VERY proud of it... Love the site too!!!!!

I think a different wheel would look better on it, but I must say the car looks really nice!! All that hard work was definately worth it! Good job!

Everyone is kinda split on the rims, some love them some hate them, but my wife likes them and it's her car so that is all that matters i guess... I am curious to know what wheels you guys and girls would pic for this car though... This car is a work in progress so we are open to suggestions always!!! Thanks

stock wheels looks amazing imo,but if she likes them then leave em
edit: forgot this wasnt a ss s/c. stock rims would be a no-no.

damn go RK sport, I wish they had that kit for my Ion sedan.

makes me want to hurry up and pick up my lip kit...clean ride.

as far as wheels, I'd suggest a bronze wheel although for that car and being it belongs to a girl I think its good as is honestly.

Although my two favorite wheels at the moment are these, but don't get them though

2 each is own bro, i personally like black wheels, but those wheels are sic, i don't know about for her car though, good as is like you said... The RK SPORT STUFF IS NICE, and they treated us great, the hood was a perfect fit, the lip kit took some work but it turned out good, only reason it was hard to do was because the front bumper piece does not really fit the ss style bumper, but the guys at DANTE'S custom paint did a hell of a job fitting it up....

Thanks, the guy that painted it wanted us to do something different, they do alot of custom work and were going to do some type of flames or something but we decided not to, just a clean looking car with a bit of pearl, just right i'd say...
