lately ive been looking for some rims and tires.. nothing big (personally i hate big rims and tires). so i picked these up off my buddy for $70 with rubber, better than steelies... also my Hvac consol was scratched to F@CK so i decided to paint it... didnt turn out tooo bad

Awesome shine to that HVAC!

A decent upgrade to rims, but some aftermarket ones will be better.

It looks like you got into some accident with the rear door and rear fender in that 1st pic. what happened?

its the way i bought the car... but for 500 bucks, and only 4000km on the new motor i couldnt passs it up.. also i may be getting the rims powdercoated black, then re machining the lip. so the lip will be polished. but i dont know yet

Yea, steelies suck. I just got rid of mine today. Im not a fan of the rubberbands either, roads are too crappy here.

I hate steelies too, but since I bent on of my rims, I have to ride around with 2 steelies so the car is leveled...

The HVAC does have a very good gloss to it...but I think you should have color-matched it to the car. Would have been a cool touch, but looks good in black too.

hahaha yess its a tube of toothpaste.... gf left it in car must have fell out of her bag.. anyways.. i didnt want the hvac to match, and i love the snowflakes after there powedercoated with a machined lip i thnk they will be ace. as you can see i have some bodywork to do, but im waiting for our new garage to be built 44'x28' FTW!

also i need you opinions. i have a few dents in the hood. so ill be fixing that, and i was thinking of painting the hood black... yay or nay?

and im looking for a minor front lip to install. nothing too major i want it to be extremely suttle.

The homedepot lip is pretty suttle and its cheap.

I like the snowflakes too! HVAC came out good. As for the Home Depot lip its a bag of garage door seal. The black shit on the bottom of the door. There is the hard kind and the softer, foam kind. Its up to you which one to buy. After that all you need is double sided tape and/or some screws to put it in the bumper.

I don't think the hood would look bad painted black, but if I had dents in a hood, they're a bitch to fix without slathering on filler (not always a good idea). Maybe you should try to pick up another hood cheap and paint that one. Hoods, roofs and trunks are a PIA for dent repair, IMO from experience.
