New member, New Car, Thoughts on these Rims?

[jgainesia]

Just bought a 1999 GS 5spd with 70k for $3500.. Good deal I thought.. I use to own an 03' GTS and missed it so bad after I sold it, I bought a 2g.. Anyway. I've been searching high and low for days all over the internet to see if anyone's put these wheels on a black coupe or anything close for that matter and I can't seem to find any.

Any photoshoppers out there do me a service? Thoughts? Eclipse in pic is my car. The rims are Katana CR5's Black 18"

buy new headlights and save your money on the rims.. i like the ones on it better.

 

[bluzvr4]

looks great i think it would love awesome either way

Very clean example of a N/T dsm! Just beautiful

The car definately looks great the way it is so unless you really want a new look or the rims have lots of curb rash I would leave it the way it is. Your money but its already lookin pretty clean as is Good luck with your choice!

 

[gst_clipse]

Interior and engine bay.. Thank you guys for all the comments.. It is a nice car. I know it's not fast.. Maybe tax time next year I'll look into some 420A turbo upgrade or something. But for now the plan is just short shifter, tail covers, new headlights, that grillcraft silver mess shit, and maybe rims. They are growing on me so I may leave them alone. Thanks again for all the comments. Good crowd

Great location for a "cold air intake" .. Right next to your header...

 

[Bud92gsx]

The ones you got are nice, but I fell in love with the black ones..

 

[95tsiemad]

its says you regeristed in 2004

I like the pic of the rims you posted better. Dont get new headlights, just get a restore kit and restore the ones you already have. Get a CAI and get rid of the loud speaker under the hood.

 

[jrdrew5]

Rims on the car look better, u wanna spend money cut the shifter down, and get a nice sound system, and make sure u have all maintenance done, no matter what previous owner told u,

 

[96awd]

Leave it. Love the look. I'd love to have those wheels.

 

[King_Milo]

Gorgeous car! Other than restoring the headlights, I wouldn't change a thing to the exterior. I'd definitely look into a new intake set-up though

 

[iforgotmyname]

either one of rims would look good man to be honest. and yeah i would change the headlights out...

 

[jgainesia]

New headlights, side markers, blackout tail light covers coming this week. I knew once I bought it I would get the mod bug again.. god dammit. Already looking at the Hahn kit. Since this isn't a daily driver and primarily will be in the garage I'm debating how much horse to potential give it. Doing my research again.

Anyways, thanks for the comments.

 

[TallestHERETIC]

That looks exactly like my car aside from the high rise wing and aftermarket rims!

Excellent N/T 420A you have there, my good sir! my advice is to leave it exactly the way you have it or in totally stock condition. Looks perfect either way.

Although we all have old cars, they look light years better than many of todays newer cars could ever look.

 

[4Lurker4]

Very clean Eclipse, love the rims

 

[IXI BLITZ IXI]

Looks good, Wouldn't bother with new rims.
