Looks a lot better.

But that orange paint in the interior....ugh, plus it kinda looks like 70s fake wood trim! You should just spray em black.

 

throw that tach in a ditch. car looks so much better than the 1st day though. that is a very cool color.

 

I remember seeing that car when you bought on G2ic. it looks so much better and you got such a good deal on that, I was jealous to see you get that for like 3500 or something with the B18c1, DVD player, etc. It's looking good keep it up.

 

i'm feelin' the dericing process!!! starting to look like a really clean DA...peace

 

looks good here too. Nice, cant wait to see pics when everything is painted.

 

yeah, I know, the orange interior looks like ****, I'm trying to find factory pieces once again.
The tach, I like seeing past 8k, so that's why I have it.
I bought the car for $1,500 with the B18C1, other than that the car was stripped of the stereo and such.

Thanks for the comments

 

Looks 100X better now.

 

Great progress!

 

Paint time!

What's the sense in two tach's?

here's how the car looked a year ago

 

SUPER clean ride. I like DA's. Hate to ask but do you have any pics of your exhuast on there? What kind of exhaust do you have? Thanks and sweet ride.

When I bought it they had it coming out the passenger side instead of the driver's side like it's supposed to be. And they had it fitted to the rear kombat bumper. I just recently took the body kit off, and now my muffler sticks out really far, looks like a turd waiting to be pinched off. So no pics for now, sorry. lol

 

^^HAHA, thats cool, when you get a better exhaust or refit that one, pics of it would be cool. Derice that thing quick....I heard you did all that body kit stuff, y u lying?
