looks a lot better still think it can be cleaned up a little more. i hate the stupid plastic piece going across the car but i'm sure if you remove it it'll look worse...either way lower the front a little more and it should look nice.

I've never noticed that trim before on any s14! Was that factory? Looks pretty bad though. Glads it's gone now. Nice little build otherwise!

I love those rims and the fitment is perfect. And I'm going to sound like a broken record but roll and tuck.

I also didnt realize how big 18s are on this car. I may have to reconsider the rims I was gonna order

18's definitely look better with aero, but maybe when you lower it. It'll even out the look.
