crxMPG – Gas mileage never looked so good DIY Front Grill Block


Like I said, these are not pretty mods and more like Home Depot tuner lol, but you have to remember that these are mods were done cheaply because they were meant with gas savings in mind, which of course means the cheaper the better.

so im convinced that im going to cover the bottom of my car to make it flat to increase its gas mileage,thanks red and get those damn parts finished

[itwillrun]

The grille and underbody are things I have already started on, I have my dream underbody planned out and it all starts with using a rear bumper from a german car. I love sexy undercarriages lol.

I am lookin at these wheels / tires for my 99 GXE.

I have never heard of the brand of tires - anyone?

Good? Bad? Ugly?

What do you think? I am hating the hubcaps.

The price isn't too bad, but the wheels are ugly, IMO.... I'm not a fan of full chrome though.

This could also be called.... how to make your car look as UGLY as possible.

Found this to be funny: Nissan altima cold air intake

[BeeCee]

^ WOW.



And Terry, those wheels are beyond TERRIBLE. You are better off with Steelies with 2 flats and bird shit on them, then having them on your car.

[TerryInLeesburg]

Yeah, I guess they are kinda bad.

Here is a quick 'chop of them (NOT my car).



Guess I will pass on them..... unless you guys think they are OK?

[lanceb028]

^ that looks terrible

edit: i just noticed that spoiler i upgrade it to FUGLY

[Jae413]

you'd be to get those Terry!



stash that $400, save a few more c notes, and get somethin nawice!

or we all are gonna drive out to you and

[TerryInLeesburg]

Ok Jae... point taken!

[94sealtima]

yea those wheels are ugly

[BeeCee]

Just to beat the dead horse and reiterate, those wheels look extremely awful. Like I can't describe the nausea I feel when I look at them.


Hope this helps Terry, seriously. Save your $ and spend it wisely. Get the right wheels, the first time. And chrome =


Black FTMFW. Get some XXR 006's or 522's, or something.

[Jae413]

a couple ok Jae picks for low cost.

19lbs each and just $99



and black like B mentioned, if thats you.

20lbs each @ $121



they have a few low cost options that are decent, imo. of course you'd have to buy tires too i know it aint easy being a family man. but save n wait, you'll be happier
