The New Ride!

2008 blackops85's 2008 Kia Optima Optima LX

 

First Change Of Course The Rims!~

blackops85's 2008 Kia Optima

Tire Warehouse Lookin At Diffrent Rims And Sizing Them Up

The Rim Is Not On the Car They Put It On A Stand To KINDA Give You An Idea Of What It Will Look Like ... I Wanted Sumthing Like a Shield Because Of The Way the Car Looks Short N Stocky So Nice Filled In Rims I Felt Would Look Nice

So These Are The Rims I Got .....

18" Akuza Chrome Rims ... I Also Got The Sensors In The From Kia So No Warning Lights Go Off In My Car  .. Tire Warehouse Installed The Had A Deal On These Which Include Tires After Everything Said N Done I Dropped ABOUT 1600.00 ... The Guys At TW Were Awsome The Tpms Light Wouldnt Go Off So After About A Week I Went Back to Tell Them And They Set Up an Appointment At The Local Kia And The Hooked Me Up Wit A Temp Ride ( Kia Did ) And TW Paid For Kia To Fix The Problem Which Was That The Sensors Were NOT Registered So Kia Did That Which Came Out To About 105.00 Which I Did NOT Pay For!

 

So Now the Car With Rims ....

Kenwood 7120 With DVD, Nav ( Garmin! ) USB, And ETC .... The MAIN Reason I Got This Unit Was Because ALL My Music Is On A 650GB External Hard Drive Which This Unit Will Read! ( No More CDs .... I Still Carry A Small CD Book For My DVDs )

So This Was Installed By Tweeter Which The Service Was Ok ....

 

.. So With Everything Including Install Came Out To About 1400.00 ... Nothing Special Done Just A reg Install All Other Wires ( Ipod, Usb, And A/V Cables Ran To The Glove Box ... Ill Fix That Later )

The  blackops85's 2008 Kia Optima  Was Put In For Added Entertainment ....

Call Of Duty 4 ... Yes Im Playing Online With It In the Car At A Local Wi-Fi Hotspot

So.... I Also Popped The Optima And LX Emblems Off The Car  And Dealer Stickers Removed ( No Pics ... Yet But You Get The Idea )

Well So Far Thats It For Now More things To Come Soon Such As .....

Tinted Windows

Sub Woofer System Installed  ( 2x 15" Pioneer IMPP Subs And A 1200 Watt MA Audio Amp )

Also Custom 110v Outlet In Trunk

Custom Enclosure For The XBOX 360

New Grille Which Excludes Kia Emblem

Removal Of Rear Kia Emblem And Replacing With A Custom Emblem Also Thinking About Putting Blue LED Lighting Around The Wheel Wells

Im Also HONESLTY Thinking about Putting Like A Suicide Front Doors And Trunk I Dont Know Yet

 

.... Finding the Right After Market Parts For This Car Is a pain ... So We Shall See.

More Pics Of It Progression SOON To Come

PLEASE Feel Free To Leave ANY Ideas!~

Nice, looks just like mine, but mine is light almond beige metallic with the 5-speed manual. Otherwise ours are identical. The head unit looks great.

Hey nice lookin' ride. I love the color too. One question; If I get rims for my Optima (same car) without the tire pressure monitoring sensors, does the car beep at all or is it just a light on the dash? Do you know if there is any way to defeat the TPMS light on the dash? Just curious because it looks like you might have run across this. Sweet ride though!
