305S0L's 2002 Black Coupe EX

[RedRyder]

Be careful shopping for 3G TL A-spec wheels, there are a lot of finishes and there are two different sizes. Basically they only came in gunmetal and 18x8.5 in 2004. The rest (silver sparkle, ebony chrome, & chrome) are all 18x8. There are also TSX A-spec wheels which are 17x7. I guess what I’m saying is make sure you know what you’re getting, because a lot of people selling them don’t even know what they have.

For the paint job, the price also depends on how much work they’re doing for you, like all the prep work, removing trim/glass, painting door jambs, etc.

Damn didnt know all that RedRyder. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. I'm considering sitting on the 5 lug swap for some time until I have all the parts in order.

Gotta knock out a few things before:
-Timing needs to be done
-Rear Brakes
-Rear Camber install (i know its not "necessary" but I want to perfectly align the car)
-A/C is giving me issues on hot days. I think the blower motor is on the fritz


As far as paint; my thoughts exactly. This isnt a show car by any means, so I'm just looking for a good respray on the exterior and das it!

Been pretty busy with the car!
Almost sold it lol, put the stock suspension back on and everything but opted to keep it in lieu of upgrading some things.

Got some JNC 001's 17x9 +25 all around

I dig. Like the wheels. Where's the Spoilerking window spoiler?

Thank you! I took it off before I lost it on the highway lol. The "3M" tape it came with wasn't really holding it. I'm going to buy some real tape and reapply it.

Are those the lowest the f and f type 1 go? And how is the ride?
