just thought I would say HI

Post by xssiv1 »

My name is Tom and I have a great 05 base Fusion orange Base Vibe with some minor mods. In the future I look to do some engine mods but everything now has been body and wheels. I have Enkei J10 black 17 inch with BFG Scorcher tires. Limo tint rear windows and body graphics I created and put on. Last night just took off the roof rack and look to install the rail caps. (Should have been an option) I also recently did the seat belt notification mod and now no more of the 1 minute beeping! Thanks to all that found that.This site rocks and hope to find and post pictures and better mods as well.THANKS

eh, i don't see lowering absolutely necessary. doesn't look bad to me. where i live, it's good that i'm not lowered, the streets are so crappy i would bounce all to kingdom come. not to mention there are tons of railroad tracks, almost all of which i hit at regular speed due to my higher, smoother riding AWD.but, if you don't live in any such town and really want to, i say lower it too!

well if you want handling, go TIEN H. If you want style, go TIEN S. And EBAY can be your friend.Dropping the car kinda goes hand in hand with rims and anything else appearance wise.
