congats! very impressive color! I think it needs a little more aggressive bumper/ kit.

yup :D and koukidreamz, it is not a fixer upper. there is nothing i have to do to it. Besides get the stereo system and alarm working, stereo just needs like a fuse and the alarm just needs a battery in the remote.

The color is unusual but I like it. Gives it character.I would ditch those wheels though.

Btw, are the door jams and insides of the trunk painted to match the purple?

I'd get rid of the hubcaps. Aside from that I like it. Not the color, but the fact that it's very clean.

And why would you think that? my dad looked it over for me and if there was a hint of an accident then he would not have let me buy it. and yes, I paid for it with MY money. Plus, clean title :P

Id remove the wing, rims and purple tints. Looks like it was a pretty costly paint job.
