and I hope it ends with new non-blacked painted rims, a body color painted hood, and no more ethnic pinstripes.

Yeah, I sure can. It's the same thing as not track prepped. I think it's a simple concept. Street trim. Daily driving ready. Street tires, not so aggressive tune, sway bar, 87 octane, all sorts of things that could easily be summed up in a short phrase like "street 'prep'" or "street trim."

You really get hung up on simple English for extended periods.

That's all there is to street prep? You should write a book!

Lots of cowl hate eh?

Looks pretty good, too bad we can't get these without the middle rib. Lines are a little off though huh?

More pics after paint!
