After all my mods are put on (see my sig) I'm going with R/T sideskirts and front bumper cover. It'll also have dual chrome exhaust. Work in progress.

i think an R/T or SRT bumper would look very nice, and complete the look. imo, the rest of the car looks too nice for the ghey look of the base early 2gn fronts. heck, any aftermarket front would do, so i'd go there before getting a new hood.

I agree.

I would have gone with Bronze Slipstreams with a polished lip for that color of your car. As far as the front I would definitely go with a R/T front instead of a SRT4 front because of the unwanted attention I get. "Is that a SRT?" Where's ya intercooler?" I always tell em its side mounted or even top mounted like soem Subarus.

I dislike that orange sidemarkers.

but the silver's do look nice at the same time

I wouldnt get a vented cf hood, OEM would look great though. Kaminari and VIS make nice fitting and long lasting hoods

Well as far as the wheel color goes, I went with the silver because it is the same color as my stock plastic wheel covers plus the Slipstreams, at 12.5 lbs a piece, are the same basic shape as the covers were, going for a sleeper look (of course a carbon fiber hood just aint sleeper but of course remember no one will suspect my car runs 12's because it is just a Neon) Also the silver is the same exact color of the pin stripe I'm going to use to separate the black/green 2 tone paint job later on, Bronze would look nice but I'd be more prone for Gunmetal than anything

. Orange sidemarkers I thought look good because they match the Export tails. If I changed to clears I think that'd look odd. Thanks for all your comments, every one counts so keep em coming and be honest.

your car runs 12s?

See my Domain for mods or rather mods not installed yet

Only reason I say 12's is because I know a guy with less mods, almost the same, who hit high 12's. He was first gen though so he was lighter. To be safe I'd have to put me into the mid 13's.

Granted this is a really old pic of my car, it still shows that tinted amber corner lights look pretty good with exports. (and Ive got the racoon style headlights.)

(Oh yea, I put the export tails back in lastnight, to see what they look like with an export bumper... not 100% sure, no pics yet, but theyre staying in for the time being)

Its actually on the side of an elevated road in the south east corner of the Mojave desert at sunrise. I dont remember where exactally, as I was pretty tired. I drove to Pheonix and back in 24 hours that trip.

sorry dude. it happens......I like the idea of an R/T nose on your car. Cleans up the lines with that bottom lip. Love you wheels. I'm with the others on the side markers too. I lean more towards the tint though. Oh, and mid 13's is pretty friggin good too!

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Sat Feb 18, 2006 12:23 am

I think that the clears would look bad on your car, wouldnt flow w/ the tails at all. Lightly tinting them would look good though

lilolneon · Post by **lilolneon** » Sat Feb 18, 2006 1:47 am

id say ixnay on the cf, but i agree with them up theres ^^ a new bumper would do you some good, srt, or an sxt from 03+ would look nice, and some blacked out side markers would looks nice

...imo...

otherwise, looks good thumbs up!

Get a lip kit maybe. Anyone else?

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Sat Feb 18, 2006 11:48 am

I'd go with an RT bumper, RT sideskirts, and paint the two-tone thing like you wanted in your "photochop" thread (I like the way it looks).

soul_sword34 · Post by **soul_sword34** » Sun Feb 19, 2006 7:13 pm

Cool anyone else with suggestions. Please no stir fry

Can someone chop an R/T front and sides? '01 or even '03-'04's

soul_sword34 · Post by **soul_sword34** » Sun Feb 19, 2006 11:26 pm

Come on that's harsh. votes for 1 & 2. Shit not even the biggest rice shit bucket gets that.

Must be someone from the org who thinks that only 1st gens are the shiznat!!

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Mon Feb 20, 2006 12:41 am

Im not feeling those wheels in that one chop...you could get something alot nicer, or keep the slips, i like them on your car. I do like the paint scheme though, nice combo

Yeah Supertrick put those rims on because in that pic I had my winter wheels on plus I think he used that pic because he really likes my Chevy in the background

. I love the Rotas, no one can change my mind on those except maybe for the color. SSR Comps are super nice too. The paint is going down like that for sure. I've decided on a stock CF hood, CF trunk, R/T Front (actually ordered one today

), R/T sideskirts. Done. CF is more for the weight than anything.

Check my cardomain I have most of the crap, it's just the little things that get me. Plus when rare items come up like Export tails and R/T bumpers it sets me back. Could've had my Quaife in by now.

soul_sword34 · Post by **soul_sword34** » Tue Feb 21, 2006 4:45 am

Okay I have an '02 lined up for sale, I hope it goes through. Did a little photochop and it does look pretty good. Except for my crappy photochop. That is a paradox isn't it?
