I don't have much done, shaved spoiler, painted Dubstop grill, and 18" Pegs. A drop is coming in the near future, and I'll get some more pics then. I was going to wait until I got home and clean these up and crop them, maybe put together a few HDRs, but I'm impatient, so just a quick resize for now.

Comments welcomed.

Do the proportions look off to anyone else? Sort of like the car is... jellybeaned? I guess?

I think it looks great mofo. Where did you pick up the pegs? And are they a direct fit?

Car looks great!

I think your number 1 upgrade should be tinted windows! Really makes the car look much more aggressive!

It also will distance you from the stereotype that only grandmas drive our s40.

I'd look into it!

Thanks for all the comments so far guys.

The wheels are replicas from ebay. I wouldn't recommend anyone go this route. I had 2 that needed refinishing before I could even wrap them. Stick with used on here or reputable replicas from places like IPD. Lesson learned...

I wouldn't mind tinting, but here it's illegal to tint the front 3. I wouldn't get away with them being tinted for long, and I hate the look of a half tinted car. I think I'll leave it for now. Might try to get away with a light tint eventually, but I think I would just be throwing my money away.

I'm digging the chop though. I thought about getting anthracite wheels, but didn't think it would look good. I wanted the contrast, and I thought anthracite would look like I was trying to match the color and failing.

My coilovers should be here any day now. I ordered them almost 3 weeks ago. I really wanted to get them on the car this weekend, but I guess I have to wait.

Looks like an awesome car! Mofolicious why don't you try tinting the front lighter than the back. In BC, I can't have my fronts tinted as well. I think I might go maybe 40% at the front which is barely noticeable compared to my back that has 20%. I have my back tinted and I might get the front done soon but just a really lighter tint.

Looks great !
It needs a drop, waiting for pics after that .. the gun metal color on the rim isn't really my thing.. nvr the less Pegs are always great!

lol I've been wanting to get tints, but have nvr got around to do them.

[kpsingh0]

but how much did you pay for the actual wheels of ebay.

 

[mofolicious]

Re: (kpsingh0)

$600, then another hundred and something to ship them, then I forgot to request shipping via USPS, so good old UPS took me for another $120 at my door, then to repair and refinish the wheels it was another $230.

So.... too much.

Re: (mofolicious)

are those the exact size and offset the S60R uses? i thought we needed spacers to get them to fit S40s, but those look awesome!
