    I'd be interested in the hood. Car looks like a good start.

            Paid less than $2000. I don't know if former owner is on the site so not outting anyone, but this was a helluva deal at least from pricing and purchases I have seen recently despite KBB values.

            I had to replace front tires, found some equitable rated dunlops and installed at NTB, don't go there, but Tirerack always does me right.

            Need to go oe with hood, found a good, in shape, oe hood near me but would need to be painted. Open to offers and suggestions on doing this.

            Not sure if I will tuck bumpers, thoughts.

            Need to get interior cleaned up.

            Just ordered Brakepads and Rotors from Ebay. Eline diamond slotted with ceramics from R1concepts. (reputable seller from what I understand)

            Looking at suspension now. WOuld love to get new but pricing is a little above what I want to pay to do a drop. Open to suggestions!

            This will put me around 3,000 all in to have a gorgeous car that runs well. See more pics below.

              love the interior
              Clean that thing up!
              Leave the bumpers un-tucked. They look way better and classier that way.
              What part of dallas are you in?
              I'm in the north if you need anything let me know.

                      Cool. I live in Addison. Suspension wise, depends on what you want.
                      Since its a heavy vert and you'd like to cruze it on weekends; bilstiens and some h&r lowering springs would do it justice. If you like all the adjustability like all the other fan boys then go with a full coilover but not cheap shit like Joms.

                      I have KYB gas adjust all around on stock springs in my vert and it feels like an upgraded stock feel.

                      I'll probably do bilstien hd when the m60 goes in

                        Yeah, I don't want to spend a fortune on suspension. I want to feel that kyb suspension

Needs two new front tires and a few other items here and there. It's going to be a weekend cruiser for time being.

                                Anybody want a scratched and cracked CF hood, not sure if it can be fitted better.
