looks good what suburb you from? driveway ,and garbage can give it away its not chicago exactly. Im from romeoville
Hello from Chicago
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to introduce myself. I signed up onto this forum a couple of weeks ago, but this is my first post. I wanted to get my "new" wheels on before I post any pictures :lol:
My wheels are hand-me-downs, they're older 17 inch ADR rims, wrapped with 205/40R's At first I thought aftermarket wheels without lowering springs would look real bad, but after I put them on, it's not as bad as I thought. Someday when I have some extra funds to spare, maybe i'll get some Tanabe's to get rid of the fender gap
Other than that, all I've done is install some non-OEM yellow fog lights, and those chrome plated turning signal bulbs so the light housing doesn't look orange anymore. I've got lots of other things in mind that I'd like to do, so I'll be around these forums a lot :smile5:

haha nice read, yeah I'm from Bartlett, northwest burb 
Welcome to the forums! You'll love it here
heh thanks for the compliments everyone! one thing I actually want to do is with the dark grey plastic 'skirts' on the bottom. whenever i see the Pampered Princess, i get jealous I was thinking of using the factory color code and getting them painted, anyone have any experience with that kind of thing?
btw mogh, yeah whenever i get out of the burbs and drive into chicago streets, it's like a videogame avoiding potholes :O

i asked before if they can paint my side skirt they said they can but extra clear coat is needed and clear bra is recommended then he said well thats for any side skirt because it will get hit by debris more than any part of your car

She is cute ... One thing I loved about the sport package was the different body styling with coloured matched skirts.
If you do paint yours, be sure to post up pics !!!!
localnemesis: The skirts of my car have very little chips in them from rocks/road debris. One thing I hate about my stock contis is that small stones get stuck in the tires, and when I start to drive on the highway they fly up at the car. My doors have a few dings from rocks
Other than that, the skirts are brand new. No need for a clear bra on them.
I'm down, I haven't been to any kind of meet like this, so I don't really have any ideas. But whatever and whenever, I'm game
