blacks wheels with chrome lip FTW

/yes, I know it needs a drop


Besides it being a corvette, I don't see a difference between the colors......

yes not much difference in color, but it's the LS7 under the hood that I really like 😀

Your car is clean, but I prefer wheels that aren't the same color as the body.

Glossy black.

You all should stay away from cars.

This coming from a guy who drives a Civic with a fart can....... :roll:

College student, can't afford a G35 or a 3 series. Unless you have heard my exhaust then don't make any assumptions.

They all sound bad......some of them even worse. Especially the ones with the awsome "BuZZZZZZzZZzzZzzZZzZZZZZzZzZzZzZzZZZ" under heavy acceleration.

I have not heard your exhaust, no. But I assume your car has 4 cylinders? Then I pretty much know what it sounds like.


wow.

Don't be mad, he's right. No matter what you do to that Civic, it will sound like sh!t.

Um...spoons like identical to these.....except the color is not glossy. It's flat black..... They also, run for $1K new so why spend the extra money on a civic?

Who says I don't buy beer, especially when I spend a weekend with the buds working on cars 🙂

Work on, as in mod or repair?

Repair, yes. Mod? I wouldn't waste my time.

Repair as in change the oil? 😛

The things you learn working on what you have.....
I bet you should've toldl all those celeron guys from the past to not waste their time trying to get higher clock speeds?

😕

Overclocking is free. Car mods aren't.

And no, not just change oil.

 
I like it. Dark wheels look nice. Though I prefer bronze or gunmetal wheels, but to each man his own. Just don't turn it into a full-blown front-wheeling ricer

Overclocking is free. Car mods aren't.

And no, not just change oil.

fabricating water cooling system, upgrading case for better air flow and more fans, better hsf.....better ram, better mobo with fully loaded bios, all of those are free? When have you heard of this being said, "If you AREN'T planning to O/C get xxx" which is usually a lot cheaper. It's not free, just a different ball field in terms of costs.

I fail to see the relevance of this question. I have modded many cars, is there something special about a civic that I don't know about?

You're an idiot. Who would spend on that money on a Celeron. It's like spending all that money on a Civic...

OOPS!

The fact that they are assuming based on stereo typical views probably obtained from movies (fast and furious) and the cheap cars seen on the streets ( blue xenon head lights, ebay exhaust, intake, poor boy short cut fabrications from home, you name it).

So your telling me the people who pushed celerons never ever spent extra money to push their system to the max? BS
