It's been a while but this is where i'm at...

Yet again another photoshoot i had but this time a friend of mine took all the photos. I forgot my camera :banghead: but i did the editing on the pics. We are both still in the learning stages but i think they came out pretty decent. I'll probably do one more quick shoot before i put Jody up for the winter.

Jus surveying the area to see if the road was to high, especially in the middle. And it's a



Posted up...







And the rolling shots...

wow, those new rims make the car look so much better!
Nice work!


Now, paint the hood, get an OEM lip of some sort, sit back, relax, and enjoy your car!

Agreed.. sticker bomb'd hoods, or anything exterior related, make it seem you're starved for attention. Other then that you've got a clean little coupe

At first it was a headache but after getting to learn what they are looking for it's not as bad. Every year i gotta raise my coilovers all the way up, i gotta put my factory gauge cluster and SRS steering wheel back in. Other than those things i pass pretty smoothly.

Your car has come along way. I really like its current stage, the black on silver looks great.
