2010 bsm s - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

hey all, I've been around these forums since October and I've learned a great deal of information in here doing countless research and spending hours reading on the forums every single day wondering what else I am gonna do to my car. soooo, here's the story.

My name is Ken and I'm from Memphis, TN.
I used to drive an 02' celica,

but then it started knocking(engine had a problem with consuming oil in a short amount of time..and basically I ran on like no oil..and boom, a big hole in the block.)

Afterwards, I moved on to a 2010 BSP Corolla S

I took the rims from the celica and swapped it, and ordered hid low/fogs for it. After a month, an unfortunate event happened...

I'd rather not go into detail about that.

Insurance totaled the car out and now I drive a 2010 BSM Corolla S. Hopefully this will be the last car I go through for awhile~

This is when I first got the car and I sprayed all 4 rims with plasti-dip.

As of now~

Dropped on tein-stechs (recently got them done, so i'm not sure if it's completely settled yet)
5% tint all around except front windshield.
swapped out all the interior leds with 6k leds
3k hid fogs w/ yellow cover, 6k hid lows
universal apexi n1 muffler
window visors
plasti-dipped rims

I have many more plans for the car

, but that is all for now.
that's all for my introduction and i'm glad to be a part of TN!

The Corolla does look great

Drop is very nice, plan on keeping the stockers for a while? if so look for a nice set of wheel spacers.

Never knew you had a BSP Corolla S, shame to what happened to it

Decided to go with Blue this time eh?

oh my...glad you are okay from that crash jeez!

and the regular 1.8l (non vvtl-i) had a problem with oil consumption. because the corolla's had that problem too.

and yeah take car of the BSM S!! is it a stick? i forget and what happened to the old rims? were they messed up from the crash?

oh and the celica looks awesome

yeah, I'm pretty picky, so I'm not sure what kind of rims I want to get.
yeah, wasn't gonna get another black one, plus i like blue~

I used this

and I got it from Home Depot.

I took a quick video to show you that the rubber comes off easily. I accidentally scraped my rim awhile back, so a bit of it came off and I can easily peel it.

Thanks Ken. Do they get dirty easy? Did your spray a clear coat on them?
