Nice motor car mate. The door strips don`t do it any favours though . Rip em off.

Thats Lake Superior in the background... beautiful this time of year with the leaves changing color and all.

It would be a little lower if I didn't have to fix my stupidity last year (ripping off an axle), hopefully next spring I can lower it a bit. I can't go much lower because the roads up here are pretty bad.

As for the door strips... I hate them but when i started to take them off I noticed the paint under it is absolutely wrecked. I tried buffing part of it and it didnt work at all so they went back on.

Thanks for the good reviews, I am struggling with the fact I havent been able to really detail it well in the last 2 years

Looks good, definitely lower it.. there's spring out there that will drop it enough so you don't look like a 4x4 and you will still have clearance.

FYI if you are planning on buying the Bullit handling kit its discontinued. Tried buying it a while back and no one had it in stock and they weren't going to be getting any in.

Ah, thats **** luck man. I took one of mine off and was shitting it incase my paint was fucked as the strip was all wrinkled and wouldn`t have gone back on. But the paint was fine and it turned out perfect after a cut and polish. Maybe because its grey I got away with it.

Still. the right rims for your car.

Whenever the money is available, you should look into smoked fog lights or some window tint.

btw... that's not laser red is it? It looks similar to mine in the pics.

It is laser red... well faded laser red. The person that had it before me didnt take the greatest care of the paint. I worked my *** off and had a few lucky breaks from bad drivers in parking lots...

I am buying stuff I need first but since I have 30 hours of overnights a week in homecare (so i get a little sleep with school) I should have a little extra cash this spring

I really want a rear blackout too because whatever dipshit had it before me had stars on the area between the plate and tail lights. now it shows up when i wash it

Similar, but yours is newer and looks much more bad *** than mine

You should see mine up close after it's been washed... you can see all the chips in the paint and such. It really need a fresh coat. And I've thought about the rear black out panel thing too... just never really got around to doing it. I still have a gt rear bumper in the basement I need to get painted and put on. haha. Laser red paint isn't cheap tho, as we know.
