It could be AMG still ugly IMO. Those are fenders I see on honda civics and accords with mufflers the size of a trash can ....NASTY..... Lorinser must have been on crack when they made those fenders.

No way the guys getting $40K, I'd say $20K max because of his mods... Most likely between $16K-18K.

BE CAREFUL

He's already dropped the price to 30k. With all those mods and a recent paint job that car may be a flood car or a salvage. We are seeing a lot of those floating around with clean titles. Its cheaper to buy aftermarket crap than return the car to factory condition. No more than 20k for a 2000 and it better be a one owner.
