Default My car is finally finished!! Lots of pics!!

Its been 1 month since I drove my car. It started prepping it around this time last month to go in for paint where I had all the badges shaved, spoiler removed, rear hatch changed (was rusted) and the whole car & trim repainted.

When it came back I thought I'd get everything done at once and took the next 2 weeks to slowly install my J1 tranny w/LS 5th, ITR Flywheel, Exedy race clutch, Tokico Illuminas, H&R Race springs, refinished 1 piece headlights, taillights, bumperlights, and JDM cluster. All I have left to install are my brembo blanks & hawk pads.

She's all done and all I can say is I can finally look at my car and REALLY be happy with the results. Let me know what you think, as peoples opinions would be the best gift I could get (happens to be my birthday too!)

Sweet, looks really clean. Very similar to my car actually.
I have always had a soft spot for clean G2 tegs.
Much props

Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate the comments. Keep em coming!!

The tint is on its way out as soon as I come up with enough patience to remove it. The color is stock, aztec green pearl. Some hate it, some love it. I used to hate it, now I love it As for the FMIC, if I get into 13s with my LS I'll be happy enough

looks good
but at the same time it looks like it is missing something....to me
i dont know what it is maybe just cause you dont see any of that color fixed up

-i think a carbon hood would help out some.....i dont know
looks good though
