This is my car while it was back in Washington. I hadn't waxed it yet and wasn't going to cuz it was supposed to rain again anyway.

I guess it worked. Here's what it looks like now with the nice weather we had lately. When the weather gets nice-er I'll start on my ram-air system and post pics of that.

Your car looks just like mine, with cooler rims. Oh, and snow, what is snow???? Same year and tranny too! Im curious, do you have your RPO sticker still (in your center console), I think it has the paint code. I was thinkin of repainting it the original color.

Posting the pics wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.(Had trouble doing that on an sks board I visit sometimes) Just had to trim the edges alot to get the file size small enough (below 102,000 bytes I think) when I scanned them, saved them as JPEGs, go down to attach file when posting, browse, select, hit open, (don't right click) and post message. Didn't figure out how to put 2 or more pics in one post yet though.

If I could find a ram-air hood for a decent price I'd get one. For now though I'm just thinking about using the foglight holes for intakes. They've never worked anyway. I think I found a way to run the hose and pipes up to the airbox. Not sure how'll I'll rig it from there to the TB yet but I'll come up with something.

I still have the RPO sticker and the color is 9535. I haven't been looking for touch up paint though in awhile so I might be wrong. If so I'll post the correct number tomorrow. You know... They just don't make touch up paint in that color. I'd love to have a spray can and a bottle of it. There was paint flaked off on the front plastic, and I matched it as best I could, but just not close enough. (notice the color difference compared to the fender)
I'd kinda like to put some big fat racing stripes on it though. tempting
