Yea they are invader skirts that he already cut as they use to be on his celi when it was red.

I would love to get rims but haven't come across any that I like in the right price range.

they arent custom? theyre the 6gc invader skirts lol.
Glad they ended up in good hands.
You may want to do something about the rust underneath though. Spray it with some rust resistant paint, or undercoating. Cause you wont see it now, but it will get worse, and obviously you dont want that lol
I got a spray can matched to my paint code before, and it was very close.

1 can did my front bumper, so it should do the sides too

Well my inspection is up next month so I have to redo the break lines and do some small welding on the exhaust. After that I'm not really sure, perhaps a head unit?

Try looking for some Scion TC rim's. They're 17" and roughly the same price range as the stock GT rims. It'll look nicer and they have the exact same offset as the GT's. They are just taller. Same 7" width as the GT's too. They're similar to Gen7 GTS rims.

I have two friends with TC's and I'm trying to convince them to get rims so I can get their stock rims

Nice celi bro, you should look into some riser block that'd set it off. I have some on mine but they're currently off due to spoiler coming unbolted while going down my subdivision road. so ill be expony it to the block. But off my car and back to yours haha. Tc wheels would look sweet, would you paint them or keep them the way they look if you get?

I never noticed a difference in with a heat shield on my old filter. It does keep the filter cleaner though.

If I was doing a swap I would go for the block as I think they give a much more aggressive look. If I did get the TC rims I would prob keep them the same

If I was smart I would have kept my stock box and made something like what rusty has but the shield seems to help but yes the main reason was to keep it cleaner

thought I'd add a picture without adding a new post

I was thinking about modding my stock box. I may still do it, haven't decided yet. Isn't it true that the square, stock boxes, with K&N filters are actually better than an intake? That the pipe behind it is actually the only thing that catches air?

I can't give you an official answer but I feel that given our cars dont need so much air, as long as you get a straight pipe from the box to the intake and put in a "better" filter it will be best. I got my intake for free and I had just got my car so I wanted to put it on as soon as I had a chance.

Side note: I've got a few things coming in this month so progress will be slow till later this month =D

with most any N/A car it really doesnt matter the kind of intake or exhaust you have. i mean they sound and look alot cooler, but theres really only so much the engine can do on its own.but looks pretty sweet, keep us posted

Well stopped at my local dealer today and got myself a master key made. After that got some free speakers to replace my broken front ones.

I know they are not good but they were free and I still havent found ones that fit my budget that I like

Mind you I didnt put the box in the car just the speakers lol
