First things first, The Interior has got to go. Probably an engine swap or a Mini-me for now, painting it Champion White or Scion tC RS2 Blue. Some Work Equips SI-R Tailights and Front bumper.

Hehehe, no the person he bought it off riced it out. He doesn't like to mess around with cars so he left it how it is. It also had a small APC Fire Extinguisher on the passenger pillar.

Hehe, guess so... I bought some Medium-Gloss black paint i will paint the interior with. Got some black vinyl paint for the, well..... Vinyl I'll post some pics when im done with the De-rice of the interior.
I feel kinda bad though, because someone actually thought it looked cool and spent the time painting it just to have me repaint it in 1/10th the time it took him.

I wouldn't even try to fix that interior. I would source a whole new dash and just swap it. It would have to be removed to be properly cleaned and painted anyway.
Go get a dash out of a junkyard and do it to it.
Good buy...even with the dash.

It's a stock exhaust for a different car i think, It's dumped down near the bumper to the right, wrong side of the exhaust hole on the bumper. =P
I started painting the Vinyl with a specialty paint from Rustoleum it's rubbery i'll post a pic when Photobucket is up. I tested the newly painted vinyl tried to scratch it off.. We'll see how it lasts in the long run seems like it's good paint.

Pick a part is having 50% off Jan 16,17,18 Heading there to get new fenders, a bumper, and probably a hood. Hopefully have enough time to rip out a few dash pieces.

50% Less Rice, paint was running out so it looks patchy below the vinyl, I'll buy a new can tonight and finish it up along with the rest of the interior.


It's got a Tach!

Oh, i found out it has Underglow.......
Edit: Passenger side door speaker cover looks blue underneath , that's masking tape which i forgot to take off... Brb!
