Damn man, that looks really good. I dont have photoshop on my laptop or i would be playin with it......im actually going to paint the area black and leave the letters white......then put a black billet grill over it(like the berger ss, etc.)......i would deff be tickeled pink if you could do that for me so i could see it. :-D


I appreciate the compliments on the stance....its ok for now but i hate eibachs.....im changing to a set of g2 springs ASAP.....the sportlines were awesome atfirst but after a few years they sag so bad you feel like your in a air bag truck.

Looks great man. I'm running 3 inch true duals now and I have clearance problems on a stock height... I'm sure it can be done, but it'll be a tight fit.

While you're under the car you should bend your drivers side fender back into place
