Default Quick Photoshoot of my ride

Yes, its dirty, my driveway is half dirt, so cut me some slack. All black, new tint and grille.









Let me know what you think. Probably some LT headers and a flowmaster 10 in the future, for now its dumped after the axle with a dynomax bullet.

Looks like you need to wetsand/polish the headlights and taillights. But it looks good!

Looks like total crap.... Lol. But for real though, it looks like a good start on what was a relatively stock car from my guess but hey, we all gotta start somewhere and it looks like your going down the right road with it.

B.S.

I would NEVER lower this car, not with roads around here.

Yes, it needs new wheels.

Headlights were junkers that I did the whistler mod to...probably ebay projectors coming soon.

Haha, thanks guys. new camera, so be nice.


Wheels are just so damn expensive....at least 900 bucks for anything worth having is so much money, espeically with headers/acessories/motor mounts comes out to $500....Maybe some ebay headlights in the future and one of those black paint restore kits from autozone.


Anyone wanna buy my whistler headlights?
