Hey Frankie can you get the scepter center tail light piece for me?

So I can be totally so jay da emmm.

Mark_Dorman · 12-04-2008, 11:26 AM

^Dude...I feel like that's a little bigger than pedals

________________

Hey Colin:
I do like the Greddy sides...but I think the back needs some pheonix rear spats or something. *Also I think it's the guys tires that are way too small.

Here are some pictures where you can see how the sides and the rear don't flow well...

^See how it looks a little funny???

Now...

^See how the rear's help it line up...

^I like the way this looks

^But even the GReddy Rear Add-ons help with the flow...

Look at the difference between these two. The lines don't flow quite right with just side skirts...
Maybe that's just me being a little too nit picky...

OH...and if you want bronze rims (which will look so sick!!!). Why not go for these?

Davis · 12-04-2008, 11:28 AM

Hehe I know.

and I was jk Frankie, I don't want you to go through all that trouble.

JdM_JunKiE · 12-04-2008, 11:43 AM

anyone know where to get a GTS badge?

honda_bar · 12-04-2008, 12:24 PM

^just saw one on ebay, almost bought it bro

Yes I agree with you mark and get what your saying. I noticed it too but it doesn't seem to bug me. It doesn't look that off even though it is. For me, it still works. What I will probably be doing is getting the car painted and getting the sides done as well and then deciding if I want em on or not. I don't think the tires are too small, so I guess that's one for 'like it or not' I think most would agree with you though

I'm cool with 16s. I think I showed those rims to ang and told her I waned something like that a month ago, she didn't like em. I still do, but I have seen em on mr2s and I don't know if I would want em... I would wanna see the chronos. i love OZs on VWs...

Davis · 12-04-2008, 12:52 PM

16s are awesome.

Rusted wheels ftl.

Mark_Dorman · 12-04-2008, 03:45 PM

^FTL HAHAHAHA

I think 16's are great. I just think the tires themselves were a bit small. It all comes down to the look you want. I think 17's are ideal for a car with skirts and such since the car looks bigger with them.

masagsxr · 12-04-2008, 04:54 PM

The camry looks like its floating

... maybe my monitor here at work sucks heheheh

mr.asian.m2 · 12-04-2008, 06:15 PM

davis...i don't mind. if i can fit it in my suit case and able to find it. i would. i'm only bring one large suit case and one carry on. so, that leave me to have one extra box to bring back home with me. the pedal are the only item on my mind right now. unless i see something really cool over there. i know i be getting 6 sets of the 98 mr2 medal. one for myself. and two for my friends here. and other one for mark. so, that leave me with two extra set for free.

mr.asian.m2 · 12-04-2008, 06:19 PM

mark... if you look at my profile picture. it's not that bad. my skirt flow very nice in the front with the 93 lip. and the back is kind of off. but, still don't look that bad.

Mark_Dorman · 12-04-2008, 06:27 PM

^no...it doesn't look bad. I just think it flows better with the add-ons. Love your car though...

mr.asian.m2 · 12-04-2008, 06:37 PM

did you get the greddy side skirt already mark? or you planning to get it?

Mark_Dorman · 12-04-2008, 06:40 PM

^Colin is planning on getting some at the moment. I was considering it but then decided I didn't really wanna play with the body work of the car. I'm gonna focus on the interior and other aesthetics that don't involve body work

You should post more pictures of your car

mr.asian.m2 · 12-04-2008, 06:51 PM

yeah...most of my friends been telling me to post it up on showoff. but, i feel it's not to the point where i want it yet. we are having a large mr2 meet in dec 13th. so, i guess i post up some picture after the meet.

xltinlx · 12-04-2008, 08:24 PM

the pedal run around $70 to $80. but, i am going to get them for cheaper price oversea. tworus.com do make replica of them. and selling at the same price. but, i'm giving mine away for free.

but, i'm only going to have 2 set left after i give one to mark.

Davis · 12-04-2008, 10:31 PM

You really don't have to Frankie. Thanks for the thought though.

So I'm bored and want to listen to music. I want to listen to people I haven't heard before. Entertain Davis by posting up some of your favorite songs...NOW.

honda_bar · 12-04-2008, 10:36 PM

well I think we all want a set mr.asian!

maybe if you come across one more set, i could buy it off you to make it worth your while. Know any good place to get greddy sides? I'm still debating. I got to get it fixed first. :/

I would really love a toms airbox. It seems like they only made 10 in the world and I have only seen 2 for sale and they want 600.00
