Default Good bye boring old look!!
So I got my car back from the Body Shop Saturday. I bought a ws6 outlaw hood (or whatever the name is) and final had the time and money to get it painted and installed.

I had all the rock chips that the bumper and headlight covers had experienced over its life time removed. removed any waves out of the fiberglass and everything was buffed to make it look perfect. So I will let the pictures do the talking now.


Here is the car right after I bought it about a year and a half ago.





Now the New look, added the WS6 wheels as well a while back.








Much improved and meaner looking. Now to lower and get new wheels and tires.

Agreed, but I have to do the one piece at a time method. Still a poor college kid.

No need for new wheels and tires. Just a set of lowering springs and that thing will be killer!

The color speaks for its self, less is more and just fix the 4x4 look.
