That drop looks really nice. Gonna be very cool to see the completed drop.
Looks very nice but the front looks too low, I've had many lowered cars and it sucks when u hit the ground getting into a gas station or hit other things on the road, I'm putting in Eibach coils too. I would raise the front a tad if u can, just my 2 cents.
Wow been awhile but I finally got around to it. I added my car to the new garage feature so check it out people let me know what you think of my sedan so far. Still not done with it lol.
Glad to see you again. The car is looking great. How do you like rabbit's suspension kit? Whats next for the demon?
Where do you get the coil overs? That is what I want to do next to mine.
The coils i believe i got is from rokkor tuning. I love the way it rides now that it is lowered. Looks 10x better than stock height. As for whats next, I have to finish painting my spoiler so i can get that on. I installed my HIDs for the headlights i just have to install my fog HIDs now. I plan on working on my interior after i do more stuff engine wise. When i went to get my car dynoed i did a compression test and it was pretty high so im just trying to think of ways to reduce the compression. Any ideas let me know guys. I also have to contact Upsolute to see if the chip will work with our cars. I am also really leaning torward a transmission change. I just have to find a car thats stick first to learn how to drive it lol. Any input on a throttle body spacer? Ive heard people say they work but also that they do nothing. Just wondering if its worth trying or not. Let me know what you guys think though
I have a question. Like the tails they look nice. Did you do the fill in work on your fake chrome strip across the bumper? So far my aveo is the only one that riveted into the trunk in three spots. Most I've seen are glued on. Was yours or did it have holes as well? just asking because if somebody did the fill work I am not noticing it in the pic.
Also, I picked up the chip from Jet, and to be honest I'm pretty impressed. I have an 09 so I have been building and re-building my intake for a couple months since there is nothing available. I think I have it done the way I want now. Just waiting to ge the winter studs off so i can do a solid test run and I'll let you know. I already have my times from before.
wow really? look really cool man :cool:Quote:

Updated my garage alittle. Got into a small accident had to replace some front end stuff. Hope it turns out good once im done with everything. Started putting money aside for future mods. Still love the idea of making the aveo unique around here. To many dam civics cant be creative anymore. Engine swap, interior and exterior mods planned.
Welcome back :D
Where did you get the "city Lights" I want them! Smoke looks nice on the tail lights, I am function over fashion guy so I would have left the reverse lights clear. As for the Guages I like the red, its too bad we cannot change the odometer color.
I just put a bulb in the little reflector next to the main light. On the headlight it has a spot you can drill into to add a bulb there.
Just wanted to post an update pic of my car. Been forever since i been on here. Added fog lights again and redid my joey mod after i had my accident with the car. Fixed the gap in the front bumper as well. Ordering my mk1 coilovers this week. Cant wait to slam the back ;)

everything looks good but the tail lights, i hate the smoked tail lights, get the euro tail lights, i dont know what is out there for the sedan, cuz we have the hatch but look and get on ebay and look, itll be cheaper then the ticket
I will post a pic of the accident when I get home. And my spoiler came off a scion tc lol. As for tails I've tried looking everywhere but none made for sedans.
Looks good man cant wait to see more. Is your antenna backwards?
Yea wanted to be different lol. I no its weird.

did you get it painted yet? its been a while. You check in like once every 9 months.
Lol I no I haven't really had time to work on my car. still isn't painted cus people want a lot of money. If I want a car fully painted its go ma be like 1200$. I ended up hitting someone from behind because at the time my brake cylinder didn't want to activate the brakes. I had to pump it like 3 times for it to work by then I was too close. I wish I had more money for more mods. I'm also starting a new job this week.
Update: got my front end straighten out after my crash. Bought a new oem bumper new headlights! Going back to my stock look I miss! Had to put stuff on hold for alittle because my oil pump had went bad and that had to get replaced. Hoping to get the front end done soon though!
How it sits now:

New headlights:

no way.
how did you get those headlights?
I know I don't have my aveo anymore, but lets see em! take that blue **** off!!
I tried going for the whole front end however noone wants to ship the bumper anymore because shipping costs on something that big overseas has gotten crazy. So i will just modify the U.S oem bumper to fit the new headlights. I already have the oem bumper and i already have the oem foglights. Next is just cutting and patching the turn signal gap.
Heres the pic you wanted Mike:

wow dude. EDM front end is much better than USDM headlights. forreal.Quote:

I realize this is an old thread, but I've been wanting to add a running light into those little unused lenses. How hard was that do do, and what did you use? Forgive me if this is answered in this thread and I haven't read far enough to have my questions answered.Quote:

Only problem is if u go to far in you will pop a plastic lens cover off and have to open the whole headlight to put the plastic cover back on. Happened to me was so aggravated lol. I suggest doing this if you plan on Joey modding ur headlights as you will have the headlight torn apart already so it will make the job easier to do.Quote:
