Hey everyone, I have been on here a lot lately and your pictures of beautiful p5's inspired me to build mine. Here is a brief list of what I have done so far and plan on doing.

Done:
-full tint
-intake
-short shifter
-yellow fogs
-painted back lip
-broadway mirror and eibach pro kit springs are in the mail

Want to do:
-headers
-megan exhaust
-wheels and tires(suggestions???)
-red calipers and valve cover(have paint already)
-HID's
-something with the rear spoiler
-front lip

here are a few pics:

How it currently sits

With the chargespeed lip

You can upload your pictures to a host site, for example imgur.com or tinypic.com for faster access!

Alright so I did a few more things: broadway mirror, painted the mirrors, painted the spoiler(didn't get any pics due to it already being dark), and painted the valve cover. Hoping to get my springs tomorrow and hopefully install them this weekend. Also hoping to do the brake calipers this weekend. Next purchases will be front lip and headers.
here are some pics.

Also im thinking of keeping the stock wheels and tires for now but wanted to maybe offset them so they wouldn't look like they are hiding in my wheel wells lol. Anybody got some suggestions? (pics would be great too) thanks.

Got some packages today and instantly went to work.

Got my HID's(sorry for the daytime pic, I will take more tonight)

And my eibach pro kit springs(which are a giant pain in the butt to install, just fyi)

Do you just peel it off or do you have to use a heat gun like for removing vinyls?
