Well, those are 5Zigen FN-O1R-Cs, right? Just the rims I want.azeli73 said:
I am thinking bronze, as my car is blue, but the dark on dark looks pretty good too.
I don't have any pics of my car when it was stock. My computer crapped out about a year ago and ate everything. Here's what's been done since then(in chronological order).
SubZeros, antenna and MS axle-back. That's about it
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
polished valvecover and an eBay intake
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tinted, but still no drop.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KartBoy SS, MP3 pedals, Alpine HU, waterbottle. (wink)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dropped on JIC coilovers!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Injen intake, AWR 21.5mm rear swaybar
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JDM tails, Rockford Fosgate HE-12s
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volk LE37 and CAD headlights
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CP racing STB and JIC bullet exhaust.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
More to come!(ricer)
EDIT: Why do I even bother with Ghettostation?? Pics to come in a minute.
EDIT2: LOL! Keep hitting refresh and different pics will show-up. You'll probably be able to see them all if you have enough time/boredom.
Imagestation at it's finest.(piss)

are you ******* serious??? you must be lookin at different car than me (uhm)
or maybe your refering to the stock paint, because then yeah i would agree the forest green looks nice.
first i thought that MotegiMazdA painted the front herself and in that case i can understand why she would want to distract from that shogun/ninja front. but when i looked at the rest of the pictures it became clear that money exchanged hands for that "paint job"...which looks more like a handjob (jerkit) thats spilt all over the front.
i gotta say that the best pic was the first one when the car was completely stock even though it had the chrome trim on the wheel wells. if someone offered me that car free, id wait till the cover of night, drive it somewhere secluded and repaint it before i ever drove it home.
just my thoughts.
i do like this pic...

Well thank you Paulie, I appreciate your honesty but everything that is done to my car is done by me or professionals I trusted. I designed the paint job myself, Im sorry you dont like it, but its not your car so you shouldnt be worring about who agrees with you and who agrees with me. I didnt build my car for you, or anyone else for that matter. I bought it 3 years ago and saw an old people car pool moblie and ******* hated it. I have gotten it to the point where Im proud to say I have a protege. I can understand people not liking exterior modifications, rice...blah blah blah call it what you will, you didnt need to be so ******* harsh about it. Its not that I cant take it, but if you could see it for what it is without putting up the civic rice flag, then maybe you could appreciate it more. Im not by any means an engine lover, I dont care for speed. If I want that I'll hop in my 3rd gen RX-7.
But I took it from being a stock IMO bland car and made it match who I am. Im glad you think it looks like a jizz job, thats because theres a lot of texture and color that a camera cannot possibly capture. So No I know now that appearance isnt your thing, but it is mine and that is my car, I have dumped a lot of time and money into it and worked hard to make it what you see today, like it or not I love it and I hope you can appreciate it for that, if nothing else.
