Thumbs down Last pictures beforeeeee...

The end of the month. Figured I'd show how the car sits right now compared to the next pics you will see... which will have a combination or one of the other at a time of:

1. Glass Black Painted Roof, Rear Trunk Spoiler, Hood Vent Thingy (Hence the word GLASS, meaning it's going to reflect like a ferking MIRROR)

2. No more red and orange lights on the car, all being smoked to BLACKKKK. The clear in the tails will remain clear, only the red will change.

3. Customized chrislis spec exhaust. Gonna be monster truckin the neighborhood. Gotta compete with some loud *** S10's across the street race spec big motored out.

So now for pics!





this is my favorite...









riding perdy vintage ya knowww? gotta have one, haha.

they're 19x9.5" and 19x8.5" front could use a 5-10 mm spacer the rears are perfectly flush. offsets are in the 30's. i ran a spacer i had machined after measurements and have no idea what the size was. it's around an inch. needs coilovers because it's too high in the front and needs to be kissing pavement asap.
