Before you got into modding, what did you think made cars look good?

Could be that I haven't paid much attention, but shiny objects and lights tend to grab my attention.

Its an option on the Altimas as well

I would just go with two on the sides. No point in doing it on the front and rear. I want blue. Who makes good kits? Street glow?

Oh Man....Back in 1976, I had a 1970SS Camaro with Keystone mags, Air shocks and bias ply tires...A quadrophonic 8 track too....Man I was cool...

Too funny....I do things a little different now days..

I drove a 98' Cavalier with hub caps, it's impossible to look cool in a Cavalier. Then I thought the TC was cool back in 04, thinking it was a sports car. I sports car'd that $hit into a light pole 4 months into ownership. The Z is my first legit performance car. My old 325i was just a hint. But man did that BMW pull a lot of @ss in the University district.

Hmmm I'd say back in the day I thought dropping it the lowest, blacking out the windows, car color matched wheels. Neons....EVERYWHEEEERE! Oh yeah...vinlys. Vinyl the F**K out of the car! Super loud exhausts...so everybody knows how fast your car is! Extremely loud, obnoxious stereo system, but no trebble, ALL bass! That's whassup.

Now that's not to say that some of those things I mentioned wouldn't look sick on a car now. But moderation was the key. Even neons have their place in this world. All mods need love.. LOL
