What do you guys think is the cleanest look out there for the 2g eclipse? I dont really want a body kit but I was considering shaving the door handles and stuff like that.

Also, I am having a lot of trouble deciding on wheels. I like the volks te-37s but I see them a lot. I also liked the racing heart c2's but I see that a lot now too.


Don't say %100 stock.

Suspension mods will give your car a better stance. A nice set of coilovers/shocks and a camber kit will set your car nicely on those rims.
 
The cleanest/best looking is a stock body 97-99 with a front mount intercooler and wingless. But if you want to be clean and different- go with the stock 95-96 body with the front bumper from www.tsunami1.com . Its a little different but still very clean.
 
Stock 97-99 with gsx/gst spoiler,ground effects and what not. Also the stock gsx rims.

That sounds like %100 stock to me.

The font end from www.tsunami1.com does look nice but its not for me.

Right now I have a 97 front bumber, carbon fiber hood, stock looking 5 spoke oz wheels (i dont like them), window tint, and lowered about 1.5 in. I am at a cross roads, I could complete the 97 conversion or do something different.. I saw grayforestgst 's car, it looks cool.
 
I have seen a few cars with the stillin front, Im thinking about getting one.... There are a few really clean cars with that front imo.
 
i think grayforestgst's car is just great looking. if i ever do the 97-99 conversion on my car thats what im gonna do to it. not to copy him or nothin(even though mine is the same color :rolleyes: ).

that and some nice 97-99 GSX wheels :thumb: ! but thats just what i like :rolleyes:
 
my car.. tinted, dropped, molded and shaved :D

red 98 w/ drift front, low blitz sides, blitz back end w/ gunmetal ADR rs limited concept pros.

it needs lowered badly. :shhh: and if the wing, ant., handles were shaved, along with the kit being molded, id have to vote that would be a clean ass look IMO. i think my car is pretty clean anyway. :cool: the thing is with "clean" if you have a stock looking car OBVIOUSLY its going to look clean, duh ;) dont get me wrong, i LOVE the stock look of 2gb's, but i think having a bodykit and still having a clean look is a little more impression :thumb:
 
My favorite setup personally is:
1)dropped 1.5"
2)Tinted windows
3)2gb front bumper and turbo wing or rodura wangan wing
4)Clean classy rims
5) Factory 2gb headlights and tailights, (i personalyl like them without emblems)
6)maybe a RMDSM front lip.

I guess this is really biased. But check out my galley if you want to get an idea of what i am talking about. I am pretty happy with the look of my car.
 
Maybe its me but I think I might be the only one that doesn't like the RMDSM lip, I just dont think it goes with the car.

bOOstd GSX: Your car is pretty clean btw.. As far as the black and white car, I like it but I am not sure if I want to go no spoiler. Do you guys think the eclipse looks ok like that? Imo the shape of the rear doesnt work without something above the tail lights.
 
I like all stock body with new paint. I like the look of the enkei rims that look just like the stock gs rims, just 18 inches. :thumb:
 
97-99 bumper, gfx, etc. oem carbon fiber hood, tint, turbo spoiler, lower 1.5 to 2.0"...18's exhaust, fmic, and clear corners, and big brake kit....or just make it look something like i dunno my favorites are redturboeclipse's car, turbo frogs, vert GS-T's, and theres this grey one i like but i cant remember whos it was...il just post the pic

here are some pix of each...of course in corresponding order of names listed...

i know you said not 100% stock but the 97+ talon conversion wth 97+ eclipse sides with some nice rims, like 17 or 18's depending on if you have a gs-t or gsx(edit: you have a gsx 18's). Rims I think would look good volk gtn's or volk ce28's or volk se37's. Maybe some nice 5 spoke wheels. here is an example.

Thanks for compliment. A few people have told me I have one of the cleaner 2G's on the site. I guess it's all opinion but personally I like my car, that's why it's done the way it is LOL.
Heres a new pic.

It depends on what you like. My car is nowhere near the stock look, but lots of people say it's clean and pulled off the show car look very nicely. I like it. Tons of people don't. It is all paint. No vinyl. I'm not asking for opinions. I'm giving mine and posting b/c lots of people said it's clean. Don't call it rice, don't call it ugly. If you don't like it, just post a pic of something else. Here it is:
