Thanks everyone. Its great what a 15 dollar buffer can do with 8 hours of detailing. Like take out those water spots on the tee bar on the roof and clear up the brake light on the wing.

The newest mods there are the headreast and the painted calipars.

Yea i had to get rid of the windshield decals. I just need to know if i liked them. I plan on droping it. but dont know how much? But i will be keeping the rims unless i can find a good deal on a set but very soon i'll be puting nitto nt555's and 555r's on the rear.

I did place 3rd in the car show. Some trailer queens got 1st and 2nd but its good to know i can hang like that for being a everyday driver.

and updated enegine pic's coming soon.

and thanks again everyone.
