^ This is now my new favorite color on E10's. I like the other bumper better and the trim on the door doesn't look aligned. Regardless it still looks awesome.

The old bumper better? Do you mean you like the car without the new air dam? And yeah, f that fender trim. I'll fix it at some point in my life. Not sure what day or year though.

Yes that is what I meant. Essentially I thought your blue one was the perfect E10 that I wanted to build one like that with bullet hole and everything. I liked the last version of your bumper on the blue one the best. But I like this green color better.
I just realized you only had one USA front reflector on the passenger side the whole time and just added on to the driver side. Looks amazing though.
I ran the new fender without the US Side marker for a few months and every time I saw or heard from Simon Tuman, he'd promptly bring up the missing side marker. So as a solution to not punching him in the face every time I saw him, I just added it back into the new fender. This was the correct solution because now I won't go to jail for assault.

Looking good Ryan. I personally think you should put those caps back on, they look so cool.
I'll probably go back and forth. Currently, I'm digging the no caps a lot. Just looks so good.

Both 02s are looking great. I can not wait until I get my 02 back to do a full restore and enjoy it.
If there was ever a time to decide to restore a 2002, it would be right nowish. I hope you document your restoration so that I can watch.

The blue car will forever have a place in my heart, and this green car isn't a replacement for it, because I haven't added any of the cool bits, but I can still make it look great. The new air dam is hiding the sins of the previous PO. The bottom half of the nose has a black tar-like substance on it, as if to hide damage. I didn't like seeing black under the front and rear bumpers so painting the rear and adding the front air dam was a simple solution. I think it was a good choice. I really dig the look.

It couldve been remedied if you had shaved the over side when you had it painted, but who am I to give advice on the car. Its obviously coming together great and I still get ideas of throwing cash at you to give me one of your cars, better that than throwing fisticuffs
