    plans for the car in the next year or so:
    -undecided rims/tires (along the lines of 16x8 et20)
    -2.7i build and low boost (6-7psi)
    -late model valence
    -mod my late model plastic to fit.
    -rear spoiler


    just depends on finances down the road.

            if you ask a S/O to do it, it will most likely come out perfect. Girls are trained to do their nails and not have stroke lines.

              Thanks, haha but I have always like the polished cap with black rims. At the minute, I think it would look better polished. The bottlecaps are being used until I need new tires, then I will make a pull on the rims. So I am not very serious about the rims being painted. I kinda wish they were stock color, but the silver was chipping. I feel like a ricer boi with them black.
              fair enough. mine aren't even black anymore (and at the time only two of them were). I also don't much like the black wheels...they're gunmetal now, but only used for rallycross events.

                gunmetal would be pretty sweet, but that already seems like too much work for bottlecaps haha

                  Your car looks awesome dude! I really like the early model valence with the pastic bumper. I've never seen that before. I can dig it!

                    Thanks!

                    I don't have any pictures of recent work, but I changed the exhaust up a bit. Finances are a bit tight with me reworking the A/C for the Arizona summers. I am just enjoying it and driving it.

                                Dude this build is awesome. For the small amount of $ you've spent, the car has come a long way. Whats the status now?
