so i finally decided to take advantage of this long weekend and get the garage cleaned and work on my car…i got my struts and finally put my new springs on. i just have to make time to put my camber on before my new tires are shot. heres a few pics some of when i bought it and the progress iv made in the month and a half iv had the car. this was what it looked like when i first bought it…most of u should reconize it…horrible if u ask me and yes it was tough to pay for it, but i knew i could be patient. ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100012.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100012.jpg) this is after my rims, tires and tint. ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100038.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100038.jpg) and this is how it sits today ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100081.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100081.jpg) ![http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100091.jpg](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c204/bobbyg1243/SH100091.jpg) my last final exterior mod to be put on the cf hood and that is comming in about 2 weeks. im thinking i might ditch the headlights too but im still debating. then its back to engine work. let me know what you guys think…im making good progress so far, so hopefully ill keep it up. ---

now to complete the look…paint the body trim body color instead of that ugly black, then cut the “slats” out of the front bumper and boost this thing with a nice front mount up in there. ---
