Welcome from a fellow local 2GS owner. Specs are pretty agressive on the new kicks. Can't wait to see them fitted.

it has leather.

thank you, it is kind of harsh here is hawaii. especially on oahu because this island is over populated already. our roads are pretty messed up and i constantly bottom out.

So if it has leather, more than likely it was a Sunroof *Delete* option they must have had in the first few years.. Anyways, I actually like the way it looks without the sunroof.. Now you can turn it into a race car..

yea that is a possibility. as for a race car, maybe not all out, but put in a superchager clean out the bay and tuck some wires and that would be good.

Nice car man! Welcome to CL! How are those EZ's? I was either thinking of picking those up, or the LP's. And how's Hawaii?? Never been there... The weather's so cold and rainy and foggy here...

Thanks man. Ez's aren't that bad for the height I'm at right now. I've heard lp's are better due to higher spring rates.( stiffer) Hawaii isn't bad, weather is good day to day where I live. Other places it's not to good lol. I ain't complaining though. Although the roads here could use a tune up cause I'm constantly bottoming out.
