Spring. Finally!

[netcsk]

I've been waiting for a pretty day (that I had time) to take some pictures of her. I've done a lot over the past 6 months: paint, all the m-tech 1 you see (and Hartge front), Hartge wheels, etc.

New shocks (and springs?) are next. I currently have M3 springs all around and my front shocks are highly worn. I'd like to go a little lower but not increase harshness too much. I know low requires stiffer to keep from bottoming out though, so I'm thinking just H&R sport and billy sport. We'll see!

Opinions are welcome!
I just noticed my front plate is crooked.. Guess I ought to fix that.

























Here's where she started (more-or-less) in 2/13/04. I got the car 12/25/03. Good Christmas present, huh? :)

Is it me or is it your bumper that is crooked, not the plate? Either way, beautiful car. Nice work.

Wow great job! The hartge + mtech 1 combo looks sick!

[87e30]

Lowerrrrrr for sure.

The bumper is straight (the front one at least), but the shadows and the crooked plate make it look crooked.


Thanks for the compliments guys.

That's quite a purty vert you have. I like the wheels :). Is that a p-chop, or is your car really that low?
Could you do me a huge favor and take your center caps off and take a picture of the front and back of the cap and also the hub of the wheel? I don't know why they decided the 15" caps deserved locking, but not the 16"

Car really looks great. Beware, the pollen has hit Chattanooga and is on its way to you. Your car will be yellow in a few days. The good thing is, it will wash off.

Grrrr. Pollen! I should have painted the car yellow!
Good thing it spends half of its life in the garage, and the other half in a parking garage. Maybe, just maybe I can avoid it this year.

Ummmm, you sure about that? I know I'm looking at a photograph, but have you ever really checked out how straight that front end is? From this pic, and the line I've drawn across it here in white, going parallel with the bottom of your kidneys, your front end is seriously fucked on the driver side.



Your front bumper appears visibly twisted, and the top of the valance under the grills follows with it, as does the whole rest of your front end. Has that car ever been in a front-end collision?

^^ I agree, it looks a bit crooked.

Regardless, you know I love it.
