Default Update On My Sol

i havent posted pictures of it since i first got it painted..because i was bashed so badly...






i know it is some what riced I.E. the body kit...but heres the plan

first off i am 16 years old...i boguht the car completely stock and put every cent i make into this car so give me some credit

ive jsut ordered some amber corners to replace the fugly clear corners...
i have a set of tein s-techs waitng intallation...but im waiting untill i order some kyb agxs this winter
im ordering a set of brembo blanks and also hawk pads
itll be boosted soon enough...

the body kit is going..im just going to wait till i crack it, to order new bumpers because the body shop threw my stock ones away other wise theyd be on already

also look for it to have a c/f hood and trunk soon enough

P.S. the trunk does look like **** as is...gutted and all..but this winter im welding up all the worthless holes, smooting it out..and spraying it with a fresh coat of samba green

if you wanted to keep the stock bumpers you should have told the shop.

and sorry, but just because you're 16 years old and put all of your money into that car doesnt mean I have to respect it...I've seen one of the worlds fastest street legal street tire mustangs, that was built by a 17 year old by himself. That deserves credit. A kid who gets money and pays for some exterior mods, and guts their trunk....well...its not saying much.

sorry, but good luck on de-ricing it....hopefully it will look better, and not like just another JDM show-boater next time around.

You want to de-rice it, yet you get your "Invader" side skirts molded to the car, then send it in for a fresh coat of paint?

That I do not understand.

But, to each his own, I guess.

ok dude... honestly, if you like it. then keep it. dont let what people think online affect your decisions. its your car, we might not like it. but who cares, were not the ones driving it.

i'll give you props for owning a Sol. Just do what YOU want with your car, not what others want it to look like. Im not a fan of it, if you like it, thats all that matters. I do dig the green, but i like my Milano red better...good luck with the project.

we are not your older brother so u dont have to look up to us.
if you like it then tell all those who bash on you to go to take a jump

IMO: think everything out first dont go off the gun and your car will come out just the way u meant for it to look
