decided to wash and wax the car on friday since it was filthy and i got my sideskirts back on finally and put the hood on for shits and giggles even though it still needs to be recleared. jsut wanted to see the look with the new brakes and rims etc. made splitters for the side skirts as well. since the plastic wont ship like the fiberglass would. got some work to do on aligning the hood a little better as well but anyway heres a few pics. ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250007.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250007.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250008.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250008.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250010.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250010.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250023.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250023.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250024.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250024.jpg) splitters ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250013.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250013.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250016.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250016.jpg) rims/brakes ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250018.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/naaby2687/08/P4250018.jpg) ---

Looks good. I think the rear clip needs a little something to fit in with the rest of the car. ---

yeah theres only 2 options for a 3 inch exhuast for my car. i dont really care for the muffler either. and yeah i know i need a rear lip of some sort. dont really have 280 bucks to drop on a nismo lip right now tho. i dont think the hood is over kill at all seeing that the turbo is directly below the vents ryanmcell. yeah i saw the other day as well ---

yea what everyone else said, get that rear lip when you get a chance and it should look even better :tup: nice work _edit_ from the back its actually pretty sleeper…drawing attention by people thinking its just another spec-v with a muffler haha ---

> [@AKA-FERRARI](#): > > love the car but hate the exhaust setup, isnt there something better? Is it a catback or just just a spliced muffler? its a full 3 inch catback. vrs and stromung are the only 2 that makes 3 inch exhuasts. i gotta bend the hangers so it sits straight again but i miss the look of my old nismo catback. but 3 inch \> 2.5 so ill have to deal with it i guess lol ---
