    Looks really clean. Don't do silly things to it like this guy:



    EDIT: nice a blue plate car. How many previous owners?

      Yea, I read that post yesterday, what an idiot. I will not be having any silly body mods. I was thinking of plastic front and tucked rear or euro all the way around if I can find some when I've got the cash.

      I forgot to mention the blue plates. I really like them. The car has had 2 previous owners both of whom were perfectionists like me.

        One more picture of the interior. I really prefer cloth over leather. Zero rips.

            Houndstooth - major score. Looks awesome.

                Delphin on grey houndstooth, that's a hot combination. Looks like it has the "is" front air dam as well.

                Looks like a great starting point and you sound competent enough not to let it looks shitty (obviously you did your homework before buying it.) I hope you go for some euro bumpers, that would really set that thing off.

                Welcome.

                    Yeah but he'd have to itch the airdam. It'd look sexy nonetheless though.

                        Honestly, I've been thinking about it and I'm really jealous of your car.

                        If it were mine I'd convert it to a base euro model with a clock, cluster, bumpers, plate filler, ect.

                        Obviously a drop and some OG wheels like euroweaves or RZs.

                        It's funny - I used to want a plastic bumpered car so bad. Now I have one and I want an early model.
