used some money from selling my car & money I had saved up.

I like being able to buy a car and put some money in mods whenever I want (Which usually means immediately).

I've installed all of the suspension parts along with the exhaust, vortex generator. The engine mount and clutch lines will be installed today a long with the wheels :D

Here's a shot of one of the wheels

Sooo I was bored today and on my way to the shop when I realized I had $20 to spare and I happen to be driving by a Home Depot

And here is the end result. Could have been better but as soon as this one gets beat up I'll put on another :lawl:



Fenders are modded, alignment will be done tomorrow

All stock with the ohlins dampers would have been much better. I found myself saying ah i love MR's on your first post, and by the last post it just seems like another car with tons of parts throw at it.
