Sometimes i wish my car was down. then maybe i'd feel better (less guilty) about not driving it.
I don't drive it, just sits on a battery tender in the garage. It's black and i hate getting it dirty..
It's so (close) to perfect now.. far cry from where i was when i bought it.. Hopefully when yours is done you'll get more use out of it than i do mine...Need the spring/summer to get here quickly. I get dangerously close to "thinking" about selling it!
my car was down for 5 months, felt like 2 years.. bought it blown up. Never even drove the car so imagine that feeling..buying it, having it all apart and having to wait because your friend moves his shop and you try not to be a pain in the *** lol
Over the years i've gotten wiser began documenting all upgrades, improvements i've made to my cars. it's a hassle when you're coming up against problems now and again, but the hard work sure pays off.

I sure don't get used to it! lol It takes too long to do **** cuz i have to save for so long to have the funds to do things the way i want them done, no half assin' ****! I've had mine a little over 2 years and here's some shots of how it's progressed.....
day 1 as i got it in Nov. '10 right before parking it (outside cuz i lived in an apartment also lol).....
spring into early summer of 2011...
Parked in October 2011-Oct 2012...
If this clutters up your thread too much, lmk and i'll delete it. I'll say everything i've done to it along the way has been worth every cent and the down time, almost! LOL

My friend used to tell me that this was the "stock ride height" for my car. When it was actually on the road, he referred to it as "slammed." *******.

I have had to do a double take looking at my car in the garage next to my wife's mazda3 after doing extensive work to it. It'd spend a few weeks on ramps/stands and I get used to it being all huge and way up in the air, then I'm done and the car just looks slammed lol!
