New pics of my car....

I finally got it out of the garage today after a long winter. I added the ROH ZS wheels with khumo tires. 275/40/17's I still need to wash it and detail it though. Its pretty nasty after sitting in a garage for 6 months.

I guess ill work front to back on the exhaust. Edelbrock headers, Catco hi-flow converter, vortex cat back, and just some cheap tips.

Hey man, Great car!


How do you drive it with no mud flaps and not have rocks hitting the side of your paint?

I dont know if some of you people are whiping $hitys is a gravel pit or what, but I've never had a problem with the 245's slinging rocks and screwing up my paint. I live in the country BTW.

Mud Flaps = Puke. IMHO
