Nicer? Well first off lose that ridiculous wing. Then don't ever buy anything labeled APC. And never watch F&F ever again.

Other than that, that's where my car started. Start simple. GrafxWerks, rims, tint, drop...exhaust. K.I.S.S...

Is this your car?



No?

Then get rid of the wing.

Only TO2FST's wing seems to work for me. Even then, I think the car would look infinitely better with an SC/T spoiler instead. Go Razzi, SC/T or don't do anything at all.

Damn, that wing is fugly. Throw that wing away. You read me??? Throw it away. When you finish reading this, go outside to your car and unbolt that shyt. Take it off immediately. Next, get some springs and drop it. CAI, exhaust, headers, etc. Give it a kit if you have the money. Rims, tint, vinyl over amber, grill mesh, angel eyes, etc. But before all, remove the wing ASAP!!!

**URGENT**

Mine started just like your's too...plain as day SE. I opted not to go the F&F route though. I think most will agree with me that I have a very nice looking SE, and I don't have much done to the outside, nor will I ever. Tasteful will get you compliments. Wings will get you lumped in with every other r1ce queen.

You surely won't stand out against Civics, Accords, and Acuras. You fit right in.

If you're one of only two GAs by you, then you're already different. Go with it. Yeah the wing will make you stand out, just like a lump of cow crap with neons on your hood will stand out. And the latter would be more original.

If you're trying to 'race out the car'...start under the hood. Take a look at Kubiache's site to see what you can do to make the car quicker all motor, that'll be a good start.

If you're trying to go for looks, IMO 2fast's grand am (the blue one above) is the hawtest one on the site......he knew what the car's strengths and weaknesses were visually and ran with them.

You definately get bonus points for being different. Cause that wing definately makes you stand out like a sore thumb. I suggest you take your car to the airport. It will fit right in.
