        And somewhat recent:


        Not so much done since I bought it, just an i lip, JOM's, Racing Dynamics wood grain interior, peerless skid plate, Raceland Windblokker, paint-matched the weaves to the top, and some small maintenance bits.

              The official "Before & After" Thread

              I checked and didn't see one specifically.

              - Basically, post what your car looked like the day bought or closest day to purchase.

              - Post an intermediate shot

              - Then post the very last nicest shot you have after your transformation.

              Here's mine...Mods if there is a thread post a link in here and delete thread!
