Alright.. this is the first year i am actually entering my car in a few shows.. the first show is in Carlisle. Im looking for a few last things i could do before the show.. any suggestions would be helpful, however i dont have alot of money because im getting tuned next month.

Exterior mods include: Carbon fiber hood, Sparco pins, OEM lip kit, Super 7 rims, pedestal spoiler, Windows tinted, LED tail lights, Polished valve cover.

Interior mods: White LED gauges, Sueded roof and doors, Custom mounted gauges, stock neons

Performance mods, ZPI stage 1, Dezod FMIC, Dezod Exhaust, TRD struts and shocks, TRD front strut bar, TRD short throw shifter.


I am thinking that next i am going to tint out the tail lights and 3rd brake light.. but like i said.. any suggestions would be appreciated. Heres a few pics.

 

Car looks nice n clean.

I would say look over the exterior of the car, anything putting odd colors in try to get rid of. Overlays or bake the headlight open and tint out the amber side marker, and instead of the orange turn signal bulbs in the headlights get yourself the chrome ones that light up amber.

Also i've always liked silver tc's with a light headlight tint. Some colormatched fiberglass eyelids would look nice and mean too.

Then on the tails, like you said you want to tint them and the TBL.


Other than that... I think you've pretty much set it up nice. Maybe try to do a dark gray on the wheels? So they look like the RS1 ones. Or black perhaps


and an S2K antenna to get rid of the huge stock one :D

 

Thanks man .. the headlights would look alot better with the amber painted black but im not sure out to rip them apart. And for the eye lids.. i think theyd look great too but i cant find ones that are aggressive enough that are actually fiber glass.

 

come on.. anyone else have any suggestions.. anything will help.

 

Paint your super sevens black. I did it to mine and they look 10x better than the stock silver. It will look alot better too (IMO) also because you have a silver car.

 

do you have any pics of how yours turned out?

 

But of course, the car was really dirty when I took it, it almost looks like a BSP, the rims turned out really nice, looks a ton better in person.



Since you have a silver car, going black or even anthracite would looks really good. Black/dark super sevens look a ton better than its regular finish.

 

i would recommend maybe coating the manifold on your turbo kit for a little added engine bling... jet-hot for example...

 

it does look good.. just paint? or powder coated ? Think i should wait until after i get my new tires put on?

 

Add some radiator fluid. You look low.

(j/k) Maybe you should invest in a diversion panel for the engine bay?
I like the Super Sevens but I wish they came in a better offset. Also, look into some keyhole covers.
Get rid of the horsewhip OEM antenna. +1 for chrome bulbs. Just throwing out suggestions for ya.

Make sure you have a box of " Detailing Tools!" I usually go shopping before shows and get whatever. Tire dressing, rags, quick detailing spray, window cleaner, wheel cleaner. I personally bring chrome shine to shine up the front grill and exhaust tip. It's your PRIDE so SHINE it up. JMO Caused by going to classic car shows growing up and see everyone detail before & during the show.

 

^^ a air division panel would be a nice add.. thanks . anyone else have any suggestions?

 

Spray paint, the picture I sent you was super grainy, picture quality is horrible but it looks 10x better in person. I highly suggest you do it.

 

I would partially cover the intercooler. I know you want to show it off but it would make the car look sleeker and anyone who knows what they are doing would notice it anyway.

 

i dont really have the room up front to cover the intercooler.. the best i could to would be spray it black.

 

x2 on covering up the FMIC. a lower grill or something, know there's probably not a lot of room but would look much better if it was somewhat of a sleeper.

 

maybe a mesh grille?

 

That's what I'm thinking. Paint it black

Sweet

Is that Mirage on the engine cover or is it just lighting?

 

it was mirage.. thats an older pic. . the engine over isnt there anymore, and the valve cover is been fully polished with a spark plug cover saying VVT-i . . it looks cleaner now.

 

well for show, i like LED's to light up what you've done to your car and accent it.
