I really like the look of them on your car. I'm a big fan of the multiple spoke style. are the 16s?

Yep 16's. I wanted a somewhat larger sidewall (50) for the rough roads we have up here. Fitted with the Continental Extreme Contact DWS, awesome tire.

So I got this roof spoiler from Obione at the recent Nameless meet. What do you guys think about making it work (would need slight mods, but it's pretty close). I try to keep my car clean, and I don't think this would be too over the top.

Go for it! I think it'll look pretty good if you can get it on right!

Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been around (busy with life and such).

I haven't put on the roof spoiler, and I'm not sure if I will. So right now it just sits in my room. :p

Only thing really recently is that I changed my oil after 10k miles on a K&N Filter and some Royal Purple 5w-30. I ordered a Royal Purple Filter this time though, and again dumped in some Royal Purple into the trusty ol' Beta II.

And the old K&N filter before the oil change.

Other than that, my DDM Tuning 5000k bulbs came back from RMA. I was using 5000k V-LEDs bulbs, and they were more like 4300k, which didn't really make me happy. But when I got the DDM bulbs back, I installed them the other day.

And here you can see my friend aiming his 6000k 35w DDM kit, and my 55w 5000k DDM kit in the background.

From this angle you can see my bi-xenon controller taped to the battery. Really the only good spot for it.

Then after my friends & I were done working on cars at my house, we decided to snap a few rolling pics before the sun had set. Since it was a nice day, a rare thing in the Seattle area.

Then it was getting dark quickly. Only got one good shot of the back. Really shows the 5000k V-LED's great!

Man, I've always wanted to do those rolling shots. :)

Sorry for being so pic heavy, but I'm sure UD will notice & love that I uploaded them all to SK! Even though it's kind of a pain in the ass haha.

Future plans are to get some Tein springs for the Tibby (probably in the summer), a Tibby rear sway bar, and the Kia OEM+ front strut bar. I also want to build my own SRI.

But anyways, here's what's been going on with my ride!

So today my local friend of mine (he has a 2003 Hyundai Elantra sedan) was showing me an intake he just got. Some cheapy throw-it-together AutoZone short ram, but it sounded good. So I might buy the same pipe he did, modify it a bit, and get a better filter like an A'pexi or K&N. His intake made his Beta II sound like the Delta V6 in the tibs. I was impressed...

Thanks, I try to keep it clean under there. That's where I surprise people. :D

Although right now it's sort of dirty, I took this the other day before work.

It's a healthy gain in power as well. I haven't dynoed mine, but I've seen sheets before and it's in the double digits on gains. The stock exhaust manifold is extremely restrictive on our cars.
