DC5 Boosted Whip <<< HELLAFLUSHED >>> Fender Liners are Overrated :p
Hey Guys. I've been on the boards since 2005 mainly lurking. Thought it was time to share my ride. Hope this is the right area to post (if not Mods please move to appropriate area.) I actually brought my ride out to Vancouver in '05. Attended your DTP and SCP (I think). You guys got a great seen out there. Anyways onto my car.
I finally got my new wheels mounted after sitting on them for almost a year. I'm super happy with the set up, they sit perfectly just outside the fenders. The rear fenders were rolled and stretched by Advance Power House in Toronto.
On to the photoshoot, I had the pleasure to work with one of Toronto's best automotive photographers Stephen Ho - http://www.shutterlit.com/ The location of the shoot was at The Shops of Don Mills also in Toronto, Canada. I am super pleased with the shots once again. On to the photos, please enjoy:

It is a nice car, and I like the stickers look on the door, the rest are a bit much unless he's sponsored and then it is fine.

Got to agree with coach hines, need to be lower to get hella flush status, u can have it rub, I rub all the time :)
That being said, it's still a very nice car.

Lower it MOAR, more poke in the rear. And less stickers. :)
I think these set up would look nice on your car as well.

schweet dc5. Too bad it's not local anymore. I personally think we don't have a great import scene here at all. Don't know how it is in Tdot.
Yea sorry not hellaflush at all. Just flush... maybe. Hellaflush is not that functional, and you want your car to be balanced. Function over form. I say keep the ride height as is, unless its all for show.
doesnt this belong in the Member's Journal area?

one of the cleanest looking dc5s.

OMG you're the first person to ever say that! A lot of ppl don't like the stickers but don't realize they take all of 5 minutes to peal off, THANK YOU! :thumbsup:

Nope but I remember seeing that one awhile back.

That being said, it's still a very nice car.
Well considering the rim edges sit an inch outside the top of the fenders I think its sitting Hella Flush.
I think if I camber more, than I can lower the car. But I was slammed last year, I actually prefer the slightly higher stance.
too bad it aint local
I drove out from Toronto and spent a summer in Van.
Thank-you for all the compliments, I appreciate it :thumbsup:

Yeah but too many ppl with CE28s on RSX's. Dont' get me wrong its one of my favorite wheels. I thought about getting the limited addition white and red ones.
That's PRTizzle from CRSX, good guy. He's got a great stance going.

I thought about doing it in CF overlay, but I plan to paint the car all white next year.

Yes I did the entire front end conversion including the 05-06 motor.

nice car! but i guess i'm the only one who thinks it needs a spoiler/wing.

I'm not a big fan of spoilers even when Acura tried to give me the Type R one, I went for foglights instead.
nice car! but i guess i'm the only one who thinks it needs a spoiler/wing.
The funny thing is i've been rocking no spoiler for 7 years. I'm considering getting the Mugen spoiler for a change. But I have two hatches, so i'll be able to rock both styles.
Thanks guys, I put a lot of time into this build. Its the first car I have ever modded. I'm glad I got it right the first time and didn't go too ricey lol. I have to give lots of thanks to my friends for directing me in the right direction :)
need $$$ shots
What do you mean money shots?
