Ok, first off, no one call me a ricer. I don't wanna hear it. Most of all these mods are performance anyway, so bit me..

I woke up this morning with a complete vision in my head..call me crazy. Since my car is black cherry (maroon) I figured I'd keep it at that. But, I wanna get a carbon fiber oem hood, of better or great quality, that will work through winter and all. Some z3 fenders, to get rid of the small spot of rust I have. I also want to lower it, fix the camber, and get some swaybars for handling. I was also looking at rims, and I know they will end up being bronze..I am leaning towards the raze r-74 rims, with some dunlop fm901 tires or so. I Want to get some front canards/splitters, like these..

Then, I want to get some HID headlights again, cause i miss them dearly. But, no one seems to make projector headlights for the 1g dsm..arg. it's a 1992 gsx, btw. Anyway, I can totally see this finished product in my mind, but can anyone else see it? Does it look good? Also, where can I get all of this stuff, cause I don't know what hood to get, or where. I don't know what suspension to get, and I know that the camber is adjusted via the upper spring perch..must i bore out the bolt holes to move the upper mount point in or out? What swaybars could I upgrade to? Where can I get canards that would fit the bumper? Anyone think of other ideas? I am compiling a list right now of stuff, so I can start sometime, and check them off as i go...

..scratch the front canards..wouldn't look right for this car..i'd get traction elsewhere, and the tracks i'd go to prolly wouldn't even be fast enough to warrant the use of them anyway..

You just want on rear ST sway bar, not the full set. I wouldn't go with Dunlop tires either, they are pretty crappy. Get some Falken Azenis' or Kumho MX's for a similar price. As for the rest of it, to each his own. If that is what you want, then do it!

Check eBay and Tuners as I am 99% sure there are projector headlights available for 1Gs.

Coming from a 1G guy: Considering your color, (I know you dont like this) black rims would look SO good, along with a carbon hood. A carbon hood for a 1G would be a nice weight reduction too, thos friggin hoods feel like they weigh a ton! Dropped on some nice JIC Magic FLT-A2 coilovers and a TSS (yes I know) rear camber kit. Fuck projectors, just polish up your headlights and paint the insides black. Then get REAL HIDs. That would be sexy in my mind...

Well, the hids would be real hids. I just thought that they are required to be behind a projector lens, as I've never seen them without a lens. I was thinking about tien ss-p coilover set, but I don't really have that kinda money to throw, so I am open for options.

Randy, atleast my car never made it to what yours did..;)
