    First time I put pictures up of the car, and I'm also wondering what the color is because I want to buy touch up paint but don't know what the exact color is, thanks

    there should be a color code either in the trunk in the owners manual or in various places around the car. its different every time. if you really searched you would have found it.

    lower it. and ditch those blacked out tails. theres a reason why taillights dont come "blacked out" from the factory

    Get out of the black stage, lower it, and for the love of God don't turn your wheels for pictures. Why people do that is beyond me..

    Is there a reason the car doesn't come with those wheels? And why doesn't it come from the factory lowered? Or cammed? Or with a FMIC? Or with those stickers? Because people like to mod their cars to make it look less than bone stock.

    I'm not endorsing all the hate, but this made me lmao.

    . im all for modding a car to make it look cool, but there is a reason why blacked out taillights are illegal. if you dont know the reason why then just put the nozzle in your mouth and pull the trigger

    Why do your headlights still have the chrome housing, but yet you black out everything else?

    I would lose the tails, get some textured rubs, and lower it. Then maybe those wheels wouldn't look too bad.

    If he likes his car, then that's it.

    The blatant negative and passive aggressive comments towards the way people style their cars around here have to stop or I'm going to make note for the admins start to take actions.

    Constructive criticism, have you heard of it?

    The 'community' feeling here has really dissolved

    Agreed. Admit it or not most of use did the same **** when we first got into it. Now everyones all high and mighty. Posting just to bash on people and increase their post count, which apparently makes you cooler

    With that said. When you can lower it, get some new wheels, and tails. You'll thank your self. Do some looking around here and check out some other users cars. Youll catch on. In the end though its your car. Do what you want with it

    End rant.
