Thumbs up CLKFAN's new upgrade stage.

CLKFAN has done it again...the car under went a huge facelift from his previous look and is now rocking some 19s slammed again w/ red accents. :drool:

I'll be posting pics tonight of a 12mm spacer application on the fronts because there seems to be a gap there because of major fender rolling I have done in the past and I want to fill up the space. The car has settle more so the pics will look better because the car will be sitting lower.

i like it, needs to be lowered more and space it out. not feeling the red sidemarker. looks like a light you'd find on an 18-wheeler

Thanks,

I can't go any lower because I have no spring pad...that's right...ZERO pads but the car has settle since this ppic. The only way to go lower is to cut. It's gone down about another 1" and looks extreme but not very practical because my front lip is scraping everywhere and the paint is chipping. I'll be posting up more pics tonight with spacers up front and the cars suspension settle. Plus if I go any lower it will not look very tasteful...it may look like a a teenagers slammed Honda.

The side markers are experimental and will stay on until I get my custom Red Brabus hood and trunk emblems to see how it all comes together...if it sucks then it can easily be changed...but if I like it then it will stay. You have to see the car in person to get the reason why the red accents are going to look good.

I got sick of the other look. Everywhere you look someones got the black wheels and chrome lip....I'm just over it. I think the look is still nice but not for me anymore.

+1 The man speaks the truth, it is getting old and I'm getting tired of black/chrome wheels too, it gets boring after looking at SO many cars with the SAME thing passing by, I'm even considering into doing Time Attacks pretty soon who knows. Sam I can't wait for this week to start getting some things done, I definately want to drop it by this weekend but it might rain. So we'll see how it turns out.

I think it is or maybe accord...I just wanted something to add to my Brabus kit. It looks cool in person but I'm not completely happy about adding the lip. It could have been installed better also but it does make the car look more aggressive when you see it in person.

That's cool...the car just looks less trendy now and more sporty...it's sitting even lower now and looks crazy...not very practical tho.
