Well you posted the pic and asked for comments - I don't like it at all....reason being is nothing flow right. The body kit looks like it was pieced together from some ricer shop. Engine bay is super ricey except for the Cusco STB. And putting rims on a car without the right drop makes it worse than stock.

The front wheel offset is DEFINTELY WRONG. I think you are mistaking rim width to offset. Go read the FAQ in the wheel section but those stick out way too far up front....ghetto - you're approaching low rider style real fast.

I know each person mods cars differently and each state has their style but.....it's ur car so as long as u like it.

The body mods remind me of the type I've seen cowboys or hispanics put on their trucks. Much more appropriate on that type of vehicle i'd say. The S should be sleek.

Seeing the engine bay on the internet with all the blue looks much more vibrant than it does in real life, but i can see i definitely used a little too much. Ill replace some of those hoses with the original black. I have comptech adjustables to put on the car to help out the rims, but ive been worried i will start scraping curbs. How much of a drop do you suggest? Also, i have to say i believe the side skirts are very sleek. They only dropped the car about a .5 inch and have very little design to them. The mesh in back matches the mesh on sides and hood and I threw In the front grill to keep it all together. I think maybe camera angles has a part playing in why they look strange, im on a downhill driveway trying to make the car look straight, not much of a photographer. I will try to take a ew more shots when i get the engine fixed.

Looks like you're enjoying the car.

You should really do some research on wheels though, having an incorrect offset can change up the handling in a negative way...
