coilovers are the best bet...

right now i live in diamond bar, and go to school in pomona, both have some nice roads so i can afford to be slammed, but in two years.. well one more year i will be going to school in riverside or irvine(hopefully) and the roads are ____ in riverside so i will raise my car up a little

point being... you can slam your car in the three seasons and raise it up to stock in winter

A lot of people say that until they actually see it in person! Its your opinion and you are entitled to it. But there is more to the paint then what the picture show!

the res of the car is cool but really I dont think theres anything it would do better to see in person, I just cannot see why ANYONE would pick a color as horid as that.

maybe you get awards at shows because they feel bad for your poor taste in color...
or maybe you are colorblind?

does any1 have any suggestions on where to get smoked tails n what not or if the VHT stuff works well??

let me know what you think!!
It will look lots better after you drop it. (Then you'll be mad at yourself for not dropping it sooner! Like me!) If you're serious about having smoked tails, I say get the VHT Nightshades. Its 100x better than overlays and will look much niiicer. I used something similar (Vans Red Lens Paint) for my TYC tails project. Came out great! Also, you don't have to be a pro in spray painting to do it. I'm certainly not a pro and they came out just fine. Check my "Profile" for pics.

You should look into painting the calipers black or blue also. Red kind of stands out where black or blue will give it a nice stealth look. Either color will go good with the 'smoked' look. Your tC is coming along nicely! Good job!

*LOL* everyone says that, it is an optical illusion. That is the curb slanting up in front of the tire, kinda mashed the tire funny and made it look low *LOL* all good man! I need to take a new pic.
