Welcome to NICO.zeroforum/138That's the SR forum... somewhere you probably should've been PRIOR to buying such a molested, err...modified, car.

Good luck, and please de-ugly the car.

You'll be getting lots of attention in it that's for sure...... Negative attention at its worst.

Well if that's how you like it to look then well

$2400, with a thrown rod and a spare block.

It can be fixed with some decent paint and going back to flip-ups or just a better set of stationaries.

OP post some Higher res pictures ill photo shop the car a solid color for you so you can see how much better it would look in one color. And with Flipups.

change the front bumper to an origin streamline, and slap a cheap white paint job on it and she's rehabilitated
