bigger wheels with an agressive offset would finish it off nicely..

Indeed!
Still long way to go...

Have a plan for the wheels (at least 19x9.5 & 19x10.5) after the interior upgrade. You know the usual, new windshield, Alpine system, new steering wheel, custom center counsel housing AFC, EDFC, T-timer Prospect II, Defi gauges, new leather interiors, alarm, etc.

And then we are going to stroke it.
Have big plans for this baby!

Yes. Speed&Sound done the swap, bodywork and the paint job.

You can see how bad my OEM paint was in the first page.
Dings & scratches everywhere.......!

I highly recommend Speed&Sound. They will not waste your time.
Ask for either Mark or Chad and mention David’s SC from CL club.
They would take care of you.
