Hopefully can get it registered and what not this Saturday cuz I'm driving with no plates (bought from Private Seller)

Do you know if I can get into trouble, even if I say Ijust bought the car and is working on getting it registered?

Pics?

Anywho, I thought they'd match well with the rear window visor I'm planning to put on. Of course, all of this will go on once I'm slammed. I just have a feeling it'll all look ridiculous while I'm still riding stock height...which leads me to my next question

If any of you have any great details about suspension please let me know; I'm planning to buy an entry level set of coilovers (<$1k) and I honestly can't decide between D2, Megan, or BC racing right now. I'm basically looking for something really streetable and not that harsh since I don't plan on tracking it, but I do like to take corners once in a while and I just want to lower it maybe 1.5 inches all around.

no, windows close all the way just like how they would without visors. they dont attach to the windows directly, just the upper sills. most of them just attach to the sills using 3m outdoor double tape.

as for the coilovers, if you dont plan on tracking the car at all i suggest just getting a set of shocks and springs. a good combination will be a lot better (ride wise) than any coilovers. with a drop of just 1.5 inches all around you can even just use your stock shocks as they wont blow with just that low of a drop (don't know with your car but this applies to dc5's, stock shocks work with eibach prokits but eibach sportlines blow the stock shocks). plus it will be a lot cheaper.

Nice Fj I have the same color, been thinking about doing the same scheme... Do you know any good sites to get parts from? Did paint the mirrors and handles?
I was finally able to find some time to get the G8 cleaned up...

^I'd honestly take that over a GTO...the back looks much better and it's more practical, yet aggressive looking.

I seek your opinion again, NT. This time I need people to shed some light in terms of powertrain:

My plan is to do a full exhaust and intake system on my car. As I'm lookin at it, it'll probably cost about 1-1.5K. Some people on the forums say it'll yield something like 15-20 whp. Just wanna know from y'all if this would be worth it. It seems like some of you guys are/were in the tuning scene and have gone through it. Some people say go for the F/I route but my thing is I don't want to sacrific my gas-mileage and drivability of the car (27 mpg mixed driving FTW).
