Not bad looking, for what it is. Too bad it's not worth what he thinks it is...

Wonder if the chain guides are done? Anyone wanna ruin his day?

No, I think whoever did the ghastly leather gathering on the center seating surfaces already did that.

I wonder if he has done the custom under the plenum hose job. Maybe he even has custom O2 and knock sensors.

I usually dont like custom cars. I like to stay OEM, but I must say, except for the leather work, and the cheesy wood stickers on the dash, it looks kind of nice. I like that the rug is the same color as the paint. I think insted of paying for the expensive, ugly leather, he should have spent money on chain guides. I bet he hasn't had it done yet. It's in Orlando. Doesn't Heavy Duty live in the land of Micky? Check it out Heavy D

I think its a good looking car all around.Almost certainly needs chain guides under plenum hoses and more.

I actually like the gathered leather quite a bit.

If I hadnt just bought the S13, I would consider this if the price isnt too far out.

LOL - Sometimes I wish these people could hear what we say...

Like I said, I like it for what it is, not what it was or should be. Kind of like the kid's 64 Impala down the street... :)

Body kits just don't work on a Q. The car's shape just does not flow smoothly into the angles that body kits add and they always seem detached from each other. I have yet to see one that actually makes a Q look better. The chrome wheels also do it no justice.

I think the seats look nice. I wonder if he covered the whole seat or just the center parts?

Drew,

Have you seen the body kit for the 90-93 from stillen? It's fairly conservative. I think it looks good.

pimpin in the mobile.

Elw- that was hilarous...

I would like to see a picture of the custom carpeting.

It seems to me if you're going to name off custom things, and prices, you should at least include a picture!

That wood trim, looks like a normal kit.

$400? ouch

I guess everyone has a diff style and taste in cars...for what i've seen from the car, it looks pretty nice...i know the leather just kill it flat out. when he mentioned custom carpets...did he mean seats? cuz i didnt notice any carpet pics on there.

lookin at the car from a far pic..it looks pretty heavy..doesnt leave much for the 278hps the stock engines gives out with those rims and add-ons.

hmm...would've looked fine with a paint job and nice lighter chromes...

that's my opinion...thnx for readin :-)

If the reserve is set low (i sent an email) I might see about trying to pick this up. Ill have my 94 still, and this for the pimp mobile... :D It would kill me but be worth it.
