My Prizm! Finally!!

[MFCC08]

Hey Guys!

I have some posts here, but no one has seen my car yet! Well...here it is!
Mod List:
TRD Body Kit 98-00
TRD Strut Bar
HIDs Apexcone
M3 Style Spoiler
Sony Head Unit
Alpine Type R speakers in rear (6.5)
Kenwood Speakers in front (5.25)
VVTi Badge in Back

damn, i didnt remember reading that you had the TRD kit! Nice! Just need to drop it and paint the kit the same color as the rest of the car and you're set imo. and if you want, try the 01-02 corolla front end conversion. people have done it on a Prizm.

Looks good so far!

Those TRD kits are hard to come by these days.

Any plans to paint it?

[Kiwi-Corolla]

Cool pics. Looks great in that colour! I agree with what RoachRolla said about painting the kit the same colour as the car, it will really make it stand out. I've got one of those M3 trunk lips on my 7th Gen. You may as well get that painted at the same time

Thanks guys for the feedback! Yeah I was going to get it painted the same color, but I ended up just matching the trim. I have been thinking about it, and I think it would look better all one color though... The reason why i didn't paint the spoiler is because it has the 'Carbon Fiber look', but maybe ill paint that too

I was bouncing some ideas off of Roach, and am thinking about KW V1 coilovers...what do you guys think?

I like the two tone look. Looks good.

Non projector HIDs make baby jesus cry.

Looks good. If all the black parts (mudflaps, mirrors, etc) were color matched, it'd look even better.

[Buurin]

What rims are they? They remind me of Chevy Venture but they sure looks nice.

[MFCC08]

I think the mudflaps really could use some painting, since they are pretty faded...

The rims are just stock LSi rims! First compliment on my rims EVER!! Thank you!!

you do realize that many cars were produced with factory hid's in reflector housings. hence why the D2 bulbs come in two flavors, D2R (r is for reflector) and D2S (projector). take that hid hate somewhere else.

KW V1's are a good coilover setup. they are well know in the euro world and preform very well. the v1 is non adjustable shocks tho. i would spring the little bit more for the v2's so i could have adjustable compression dampening. or v3's if you could find them for our cars. fully adjustable dampening.

I do, plenty of cars have them. Avalons, Maximas, etc. Prizms and corollas do not have DOT compliant HID reflector housings no matter which way you slice it though. Cars with OEM non-projector HIDs are DOT compliant. The real reason for this bump is to show some Prizm love though, those stock wheels are in great shape and actually don't look awful. Mine do!

[MFCC08]

Thanks for the wheel compliment! Yeah they still are in pretty good shape, and when I bought the car, it was in good shape overall! I just recently purchased the rare ELP CAI and put it in too. It is a definite winner! Gotta look at lowering it now...

I think the KW V1's are going to be outta the price range... I might go with tokico blues and tein s tech or sport lines...

[burnout8488]

Take an engine bay pic my prizm brethren!

[PhatRoyale]

paint the kit already!

I would do the mirrors, door handles and moldings as well.
