That's odd. Even if you'd never seen or heard of LE37Ts, I should think that you'd at least recognize the TE37 styling. It's actually a good thing that this set isn't widely recognized tho (but is becoming increasingly popular 'round here ;) ).
Chiznarles: It's a JDM C-ONE kit, but with the lip spoiler instead of the front bumper. I got it thru Hypersports Racing Honolulu (http://www.hypersportsracing.com).... they import a lot of JDM parts. Not sure who you'd be able to pull it in thru up there in Cali, so I guess you'd have to ask around. There's a couple sites online that can get you the kit, but I've heard they do poor transactions.

Those do look like my rims... but how come yours is so much lighter than mine? Isn't it suppose to be gunmetal instead of silver?

Yeah, that's right, I recognize the TE37 styling now. I guess ALWAYs seeing them in white and your silver wheels just threw me off.

Thanks for the compliments! ;) Hehe, yep some of my own friends aren't fans of aluminum wings, but this one's gonna have to stay on. It goes along with the theme I have in mind. I'm planning to bring in a C-ONE CF hood to finish the outside, and a set of BRIDE Brix seats. If I can find a set, I'd love to get my hands on a pair of JDM headlights (just the regular non-TRD issue).
nyoneway/HilfigerCelica: hehe yep, few ppl actually know that these also come in this color. The few sites that actually advertise an alternate to gunmetal tout it as diamond cut silver (like the GT-Ps) so I think most ppl haven't come across these. If you look on the RAYS site tho, you'll see them. It matches the silver of the car quite closely, altho the pics make them look darker than they really are. If you'd ever seen a pic of the TE-37 Limited Edition, these are a dead ringer for 'em. I think Bottle even had a set he posted up for sale here WAYYYYYY long ago, before I even registered I think. ;)
coOOlcelica: yep, 17x7, 30mm offset.
Tony, ya missed out on the car show! We were all wondering where you were, but I guess you had to work? hehe, we need to get you on the go-kart track one night. :D

The car look good. The only thing it bother me is, not to be mean or anything. I don't dig the rear bumper that much. Don't get me wrong, I love the Japanese look. It just something about the rear bumper. I myself would of gotten the trd rear skirt instead. The rest of the car look great. Keep it up!!

Hey qwksilver808...what have you heard about the c-one cf hoods?
QWKsilvr808
06-09-2002, 09:47 PM
JamesFlames: The rims usually retail at just under $600 per wheel... but if you search hard enough you can find much better deals. The lowest price I got online was from Bottle, at $475 per rim.
LovinDaCamSwitch: I know what you're saying... the rear does look, well, different. It brings the lines of the rear end straight down, and to be truthful, at some angles the car can look much like a boat. It does however make the rear end look VERY low to the ground. Unfortunately, I don't think anything would really match the lines of the C-ONE skirts properly, they drop very low... in fact, a full inch lower than the jack reinforcement points underneath the sides of the car. I really wanted to keep the look clean, and not mix and match too much, so I took the good with the bad. ;) My Nur-Spec, btw, looked dope with this rear end, before I sold it that is.
badboy58: got them thru a shop locally who brought them in thru Mackin. Same shop that I had import my kit. (http://www.hypersportsracing.com)
Speed Racer: nothing, actually. Aside from the car pictured on C-ONE's japan site, I haven't seen the hood on another car, or heard anyone's opinions on it. From the quality put into the kit for my car tho, I'm assuming it to be nothing short of perfect (or as close to that as you can realistically get)... what I really like is that it comes with the M-spec scoop (not the other C-ONE scoop that is so popular). I can get a pretty good deal on it and am willing to spend the extra dough, so that's what I'm shooting for.
Sups: it's a powdercoated finish silver. In some lights it looks bright silver, and at other times it can look almost gray.

hehe well, it was either a rainbow, or a hula girl's ass... status quo voted for the rainbow apparently. :(
I'd take the front plate off, but it's a $500 fine. And believe me, they DO enforce it around here, I got a ticket for it once before on my other car. In fact, they'll give you a ticket for just about anything... believe it or not, my setup is practically illegal in Hawaii. People like ohmygts and myself are constantly ducking down sidestreets dodging the cops. :D

Hawaii has some of the lamest laws for cars but the import scene is ridiculously huge. qwk is right about us haveing to duck down streets.......it sucks.
