    So, it's been a while...

    I haven't posted pictures of my car in a long time. I actually went off to college towards the end of August, and I'm home now, for Christmas, for the first time since there.

    My car, which I drove over to Rapid City, SD, to have with me while at college, has only been washed twice since I moved there. (it's amazing, how little time I have!). I figured I'd toss a couple pictures in that I've taken since I moved out - not a whole lot has changed (other than me breaking my engine mounts again) haha

    I haven't been able to actually get up into the hills with a digital camera (I have to burrow my friends SLR - which i can't all the time). Not to mention I need snow tires before I can get there now!

    A couple pictures after the first time I washed it:



    Here are some pictures of my car covered in snow - not much at all, I know. ;)



    Here are some pics after 2 months without a wash:



    ANND, after the wash - WHAT A DIFFERENCE!





    Just a reminder - here's how the car looked when it was purchased back in February of 2004! :) (look how HIGH it used to be! lol)




    I guess just some pics of the past couple months. Just felt like sharing. Hopefully I'll get a nice digital camera for christmas, so I can get some really nice shots later on! :)

    Those 15" RZ's definately look tons better than my 14" baskets!

    Merry Christmas everyone!



    Quick list of plans for this summer:
    - Rieger replica front lip
    - Plastic Bumpers (with eurhooo trim and smoked signals)
    - Smoothed front valance, repainted with bumpers
    - Rebuilt 2.7 stroker
    - Redo undercoating, side strips and shadowlining
    - OKTOBERFEST! :)
    Thats pretty much the major stuff. I wish I had gotten darker tint.


    Oh, and before anyone says anything - I know those 14" tires are bald. They are only on there until I get snow tires and/or some 14" track tires. I don't drive around in them, and if I do, it's in town! ;)

          Actually, mine are not Ronals. They are genuine BBS RZ's - 15x7 ET20.

          Look real similar though! ;)

                          Your car looks great Sean. It looks mean with that wheel tire combo (the RZ's). I only washed my car once this semester but it never got that dirty!
