>god those hids are bright, are they 1000k?

6000.


Just pitching in my .02, 1000k would be a red color. 3000K is a "Jdm style" yellow, 4300k is the brightest output and whitest white you can get. 6000k is a tint of cyan, 8000k would be slightly blue, 10000k is blue, 12000k is blue-purple, 14000k is purple. I've had everything from 8-14000.
The colour of the HIDs through photos can are never what they seem like in real life. The white balance from the camera throws it off ALOT. 6000K is never that blue.
Yeh you took photos at night when your car is black. I cant really see much but it looks good. Take some better pics in day time please smile.gif

Hmm... those splitters look oddly familiar... Oh wait! I know the guy that used to own them wink.gif laugh.gif

How'd you get the gloss to turn out? As you can tell, I never could get it quite right. But I figured they were on the bottom of the car and I live in the middle of nowhere and they were going to get scratched anyway, so I didn't care. Anyway.. Looks like you got them done better than I did.

Are you talking about Johnnehh's rims?

rpf1's are a split 6 spoke design. These rims are a split 5 spoke. They are fake Racing Hart CP035.
Really does need moar low...glad I didn't go with S-Techs in retrospect, the rear is just too high for me. Then again, I'd like for my stance to be more like yours, the front being slightly lower than the rear.

Bronze on black is great though. Good job.

i need to lower mine just as you need to lower yours. i think mine may be higher in the back. it always looks jacked up from those angles

I can do that....smile.gif

BANNED. for life, you moron.
Gold looks good on black. And with those rims they suit it very well. I wouldnt have it any other way. But its bitching, i cant see my celica having a good set of rims, hell i dislike my 10 spoke ones even. Thinking to go it tatanka green or silver or gold like yours even to see if it suits. Cant picture any rims that look 100% perfect on celicas. And i look at yours and it magic.

WOW!!!! F*** awesome man! But those rims are more like Gold than bronze. Bronze is a lot more darker than those. The rims I got are bronze and you can tell the diff but either way man your car is redonk-ulous!!!
Looks good.

Get many people trying to race you now that you look like a GT4? I can't go anywhere without people driving agressively around me when they see my car, trying to make a noise or something -- even if I'm parked up !!!
