Default My 2001 WS6

Got this just the other day. I always loved how WS6's look and the seat comfort they have. I kinda regret selling my pewter ws6 I had a few years ago. But finally got back into one now!
Its a 2001 6 speed, thats pretty much stock besides Borla exhaust and UDP. Appearance mods has drilled rotors and a short shifter. Just ticked over 100k miles. Black on black and interior is in excellent shape. Just need a little detail to get some fine swirls out. Then lower it, tint windows, then she's good to go




**UPDATE 11-2-12**
Lowered on LG springs, tinted windows, painted calipers, VHT front side marker (thinking of doing the rear sides now) and VHT the reverse lights.

nice price on a sweet ride. definitely lower it and get those windows tinted. those two things change the look a ton. I would do chrome accents because red/black is played out imo. enjoy that thing.

Yeah I haven't jumped the gun for the red. Chrome would be nice though

Well my bro and I were bored so we hurried and took some quick pics.

Since I got it a few weeks ago I got all the windows tinted and painted the calipers red. I just got my sport line springs in today so that will also be installed.

I'm thinking some 6K HID lights/fogs, silver blackbird stripe, get a WS6 rear emblem and it'll be clean looking

thanks guys!

I have the sportline springs I was going to put on, but after a lot of reading, I decided to switch. Looking for strano springs so Its not as low and rides a little better. Also would like some wheels like the HP Evo's or ccw classic look.

Good choices.
Dont forget to get some good shocks on there, brand new the stock decarbons are not adequate for even the stock springs, none the less lower and stiffer springs... Look into at least some bilstiens (stranoparts.com)---> sponsor links to the side.
