i messed up the front fenders trying to pull them, but i dont really care. the whole car is beat up so it kind of fits.

i might do a dual cam swap, but im not gonna turbo this car. i dont have enough money and id rather just do suspension, maybe some bolt ons.

i was parked pretty far away at gg because there was no parking, then, when people started to leave, i finally got a good spot.

i am going to re-rattle can the car this summer. i did pretty good this time, but i think i can do even better if i try again.

plus, my car is f***ing orange. i dont want an orange car.

nice man the first pic is insane. i don't think i'd get very far driving your car around here in NYC.

i like both set of wheels because the old one fit with the oldskool look of the car while the new one looks more modern. nice though.

^^ yep, yep.

you NEED to be slammed with 15s with 50 profile tires for it to look good at all.

i wanted to go like an inch lower or even more, but that would just be stupid, so i got new wheels.

completely off subject, but did you see the widebody hatch with spinners? it was loud, low and wide as f***.

looks pretty good man. you should try to sand/grind off those crazy streaks on your sides. It would look better like that IMO.
