BTW do you do detailing anymore or only for yourself now? Mine could use some decent swirl removal from the previous owner.

roof wing came in, color is slightly off but not but as **** as i am, it's not bad enough where it makes a difference in the normal eye. paint job is really nice, they did a great job with the wetsand job, matches oem orange peel perfect. awesome fitment as well. mounted pics when daylight is out. dupont paint and three coats of clear. not bad for 94 shipped.







got my gtspec bar in. its off to the powdercoater now along with the joe Z intake. i need to make up my mind what color im doing by tomorrow. im thinking either electric blue dormant , black chrome or wrinkle black.

I got the same roof spoiler, for $94 you cant beat it with a bat

now you need to blackout the chrome window trims and BAM!


I need to find a place to send my wheels to be black-chromed. I think thats the color you should choose for that bar.

Are on stock tires or did you widen to 245s (F) 275s (R) ?

they are stock sized but the bridgestone re-11 seem to run a tad bit wider than most.
