Default Flat black and 17" Billet Specialties

Buddy snapped some pics of the car. I would really like to lower it, but with the drag setup on it, the tires rub, so Im gonna have to get some bigger tires on the street wheels whenever I get the spare cash. Black Mark Images is his photo "company" check him out on facebook!

Do a stainless steel intake pipe, or even black if that's your thing. Then clear corners on the front. Wash the damn thing, then put some tire shine on the tires... then you'll be all done.

The double orange look from the front would look way better either all black or aluminum colored though.

Yeah I want to change the color of the tubing. The block and all the cold side piping are painted an atomic orange color I thought it would look better than it does.. The car itself is actually only plasti-dipped, I'm planning on getting it painted later on, but the paint was faded pretty bad on the front bumper and hood, so it will do for now.
The rear tires are 315/35/17 on 17x11.5 rims. And like I said my MT radials will rub if I lower the car, so I'm just going to put some bigger tires on these rims.

some better pics of the piping..

Yeah that is very awesome motor.. I think it would be best to do either do all black on the piping and VHT tinted front turn signals... or chrome/polished pipes with the clear corners.
and don't forget the red ones on the back bumper

What backspacing on your wheels? I'm assuming narrowed rear, just wondering cause I want the same wheels my s60 that's going in is 2" narrowed each side.
Nice car, looks mean!!
