Stickers??? You mean emblems??? I took those off already and got goo be gone or w/e and got all that stuff off. The wheels are trash, Im on the look for new wheels. And the d16y7 under it has a hole in the block and a knocking rod.. But I have a z6 to get it driving for now...Eventually It will be a K series or B18 it.

Big progress post...

Sorry for the bad quality.
























pulling the motor soon, then have my buddys dad weld up the useless holes and prep it for paint.
That should be the next post with progress.

So why are tinted taillights considered ricer?

On some of the cars i've seen it adds a cool look, just because it's not jdm doesn't mean it's ricer.

JUST SAYING IS ALL

But still will be a sick car dude! got one of those also, trying to save up to actually go somewhere with it
