    Sorry to say, but the 17's arent mine. A friend of mine lend them to me to see if 17's would fit, but I get a wheel rub on the rear end, so maybe Im gonna have to stay with the 15's. As for the rear bumper, not to sure if it is off a coupe, how would I check? And that exi badge is indimadation for people who want to race.

    wow, that is pretty nice and clean. hope to see more of your nice 3gee as you fix it up more and more. that paint looks really good, looks just right on it.

    look at the manual window cranks and black door handles if you didnt see em. i still think the black door handles look good on it though.

    I didnt use any product. Im a firm believer in the use of water, instead of using products. Water/cheap, products/expensive

    I dont have shocks in the rear, I have struts, and there new. It only rubs on the right rear side, not quite sure y. I really hope its just the springs are worn out, and not the frame rusted and twisting on me.

    Not steam cleaning. Just a shami and a bucket of water.
