Default Missing warmer days(Del Sol warning :P)

Well these are older pictures but I've never shared them outside the Del Sol board. Now that my car is under a cover and a foot of snow, I can't help but miss being able to drive it everyday. Progress from day 1:

Purchased in 4x4 bling mode. DUB status

Finally got new wheels and tires (which desperately needed a shine)

Threw on my coilovers.....

Then I added amber corners and managed to mount my lip wrong..... But I fixed it and that brings us up to now.....





When/ if things ever thaw out, I'm hoping to finally get some engine work going as well as a full re-spray. Not sure If I'm gonna keep it a shade of red or go with something entirely different. As well as whether or not to color match the lip/skirt. Plenty of time to decide those things though. Opinions are welcome and recommended

imo, i think you shoudl paint the lip, even if your going for the black/red theme, i think the part of the lip that curves into the middle grill makes it look like your missin a toof

Haha, yeah, the driver side sits a smidge low. Will be fixed this spring. It bugs me everytime I see it.

I got the idea from, "Hey a semi! I bet I can fit under there!"
