I finally got time to post my avatar and signature so I figured to celebrate I should post some pics of my car as well. Not much to it still alot of work needed to go into it but I guess thats what you call a work in progress.

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you my pot of rice ( more like a rusty bucket :P)

Motegi 17inch rims.... originally I wanted to get some deep dish 15 inch rims but then saw someone on facebook were selling these for $400 for the set and tires so I went with these.

Everyone thanks for the comments, its amazing what wax and alittle elbow grease can do to your car...now only if I can buff out the rust that easily.

The colour: Navajo Red Metallic Clearcoat R-70M

My tire size: 205/40 R17 80H

Strut bar: They're Generic OEM bars that I bought on Ebay from Trustnoone

And the reason behind the primer...I dunno really I had the grinder one day and decided to grind away the rust or whatever I can...but then I was grinding on bodyfiller thinking it was just rust, so i guess it was damaged there from the previous owner. I ran out of paint and thought the primer would be better than just having rust highlighting the car :D

Nice and clean! I think you should have left the paint on there though cause the rust would have been less noticable. Do you have anymore of the Oem strutbars?

I pretend the primers frost build-up from driving the car really fast in high altitudes :D
