never thought about making a build thread on this car, but here we are almost 3 years later and I decided to share.

what it looked like when I first got it. I will post more pictures as I upload them to image hosting site.

so liking the new look I decided that i wanted a front apron. Realizing that I have euro coupe - the Mtec1 apron came to mind. Bad part is they are expensive and hard to come by so I decided to go with a replica from overseas.




bolted up



well I knew once I did the apron I would need some new wheels so I got a pair of RC090 from another forum to update the look.

M-Tech 1 looks sweet.

Did it need much teasing/tweaking to get it to fit? Replica parts can be a bit annoying like that sometimes.
