Everything looks sooooo damn sexy and cool!!! Except two things... Veery very ugly exhaust and cheap chrome doors handles...

Anyway, congrats with nice ride!

How does the ride handle now with all those upgrades?

Did your car ever wander to the right when driving frwy speeds(even though alignment was in spec) and then the issue got fixed after these improvements?

Dam your slammed up front! Nice pickup on the brace, sounds like it did a lot for you

I understand that you have no interest in my exhaust. but it's my car and i have my own taste that's what makes my style and for you to make a comment about it being (very very ugly) is unnecessary and please just keep it to yourself. and i don't know what you mean about my handles being Cheap? i paid a well 300$ for them so please run that by me again.

I got the tailights from ebay. they're the depo ones around 280 shipped. didn't really want to go with the insurance ones cause after a wall tap at the track they'd be long gone aha.
