      I think that's basically it, but I'm sure there are a lot of details that changes...
      Thanx just curious

        Here are some new shots. I'm not overly happy with how they came out though.

                No longer stock ride height, rolling as low as a daily driver in New England should without worrying about breaking an oil pan. :up:

                    Dur! You caught my ninja edit. I've always known about the one in your sig and its thread, I just read the first post and thought you scored yet another. I was perplexed, but this is R3V.

                      This is what her front end looks like now. Don't mind the cell phone quality picture and yes, lots of bugs... That's what an hour on the autobahn does to your car. New smoked hella's with 55w 6000K HID's, euro towhook covers, and foglight delete/air ducts.

                              Looks good!

                              We should meet up some time before I'm gone for the summer. I'm almost done with my car for now. Interior is going in real soon.

                                I leave in 10 days. I MAY get out to the 24 hour race at the 'ring. That'll likely be the last time she's out. I have to ship her back to the US!
