Default New pics...finally

Well...
its been a long time since I;ve taken some pictures of my car. With all the work I've done/had done over the past year, I think its time. So here they are. Let me know what you think guys, hatch is waiting to be tinted and i also am waiting for a tune.
This is my WARBIRD, this car stands out from everyone elses. So its a warbird now lol.
Check the site:

p.s.
by chance if any of you photoshop guru's happen to look, would anyone mind making me a new sig with the new pics. I made the last one its just I dont have photoshop on my new computer now, so I cant do it...I would really appreciate it.

the rims? around 800 shipped ...sick price, but i went through alot of BS and ended up waiting like 6 months for the wheels. Got them from a member on here, who knows the guys that make em i guess. I also ordered the fronts 8.5 but ended up gettin 9.5 all around. Not bad excpet i had already ordered the tires, so now im stuck with two tires I dont need. Anyone need some tires?

2" intrax springs. Its very low...I haven;t measured ground clearance. I do have long tubes though, so i drive very carefully, but the car does not like speed bumps or potholes. Its worth it though because its under collector car and is only driven during the summer. Defintily worth putting up with considering its not a DD.
Thanks for the kind words fellas!

edit: Sometimes, I kinda wish it had the side skirts like the TA, but someitmes im glad because i like the really clean lines of the formy.

2x edit lol: what do you guys think of the blackbird stripes? I wanted something different from everyone else so I went with warbird. comments on the stripes?

WOW...love it.

I love the rims too...how is the quality of them? I've been putting them off but definitely gonna get those soon. What size tires you running? 285/35/18?
Do you know if they balanced easy(as in they're not cheap lopsided ones)

hey Jim! how the rims working out for ya? Car looks good! Thanks man.
and 99z28, the rims are excellent quality. I have 275/40/18 all around. Might have needed to gone with 35 up front as it rubs sometimes. no problems with the balancing as far as i know.
