Its still a work in progress and needs a new paint job, but Im proud of her nevertheless ( you can tell by the 5th picture down.. caught me off guard their) . I've not given her much track time, but intend to in the near future. So.. what ya think... any suggestions . All opinions welcomed
My upper lip is not that big, its my passengers chin that aligns perfectly with my upper lip
This is me racing an Acura TL Type S , I was winning, until his VTEC kicked in... thing is a respectable import
time to get a photo editing software so you can resize those pics, some people are still on 56k (not me, i have good ol cable) but their still kinda big
The only things that seem a little out of place to me are the fire extinguisher and the fog lights look too blue when they're not on and ruin the black/red trim look you got going.
Otherwise
What brand are those fog lites? I think they'd look good on my blue car :hail:
Next mod before the paint job will be the SS style scoop/cowl in black with the inside of the scoop painted red. Other than that, the only other red will be the break calipers. Interior wise, seriously considering intergrating a laptop and wireless keyboard in the dash, ( I am a computer geek with thousands of mp3's, CD's suck) either that or one of those clarion DVD systems. It will be unique when its done. Not rice though.. .NO RICE.
The paint in between the lights literally faded away after time. Either that or they were replaced before I purchased it, ( but their is paint in between the lights that is fading so... im riding on that ) . Im going to Resize those pics and Re-post
