Awesome. Are you gonna swap over the tails too? What's the black line on the tails currently on the 5spd?

I've got a friend who might be giving me some 97+ tails. That black line is dried electrical tape for some reason...





Today I got the windows tinted. 15% in the front and 5% in the rear. Rims and suspension got delayed until Tuesday.

Here are a few interior pics

I hear you. Every night after work I would search for hours and hours on every single car site for the perfect SC. Finally I found this one right here on CL.

In due time my friend I might just go with the 97+ front bumper, but first things first. I'm taking it for an alignment after the drop, then I'll be doing some regular maintenance.

-Pics asap
