lookin good man - my 2nd fav color for a thirdgen without a doubt
I've got some other things on my list. I don't really want a Hawks spoiler since i'm keeping the stock hood.
They just don't do anything for me with a stock hood on the car. They look good on your car since you've got something bit n' nasty up front.

Lookin' great!

The car is begging for a window tint and some wheels, but other than that, it's coming along nicely.

Congratulations on doing such a great job with it so far!

Looks OK in pics.

Scrubbing the tires and putting something on them would help...

Your high beams look like they're about deaded...

Yea I forgot to put some cat **** on the tires before I left the house. Oh well, I will next time

And yea the high beams need replacing. One is just about shot and it looks like the car has a black eye.

I think what Blue meant was that the pictures were resized because the originals were 2.5 bigger than 700.
