updated photos of my car

Finally put on my front two wheels. It's raining so hard outside but I still decided to take some pictures. The pictures are not too clear since I was too lazy to grab my camera and just snaped them with my phone. The wheels are just some cheap wheels which I ordered online. They are Speedy R505 I think and they are 18". I am not loaded like some of the other members so I can't afford those 3letter forged wheels . I want to lower my car but I don't think I can go up my home's driveway if I did since I am scratching my C-F lip (thx Cue14 :P) a lot already...

I am not letting my sister drive the car when she comes back in Christmas and I told my mom not to park too close to the curb if she's not backing in...but then there isn't much that I can do... There's actually a 1inch x 1inch hole covered by the CF lip in the front bumper made by my sister.

Ya they only let you tint the rear windows here, but I see many Bimmers and Merc drivers tint their front 2 windows too. I am planning to get my windows tinted but I am not sure when. One of my unlucky friends got a 120 ticket for his front windows a year or two ago.

Can you post or PM me some details on those wheels? They're pretty aggressive looking and 'cheap' has caught my attention.

I am done with modding the car, maybe get the windows tinted later. Don't want to join the local rice meets. lol

It's raining a lot recently and final exams are coming up, maybe we can organize a meet around xmas.
