    My car in its current form

    This is my car as it sits right now.



    Sorry about the picture quality it was taken on my cell phone. Once it gets painted this winter, i will get some better pictures.

    Let me know what you think

    i am thinking a lighter grey, something along the lines of Audi Nimbus Grey. Then eventually get some different wheels in either bronze, gunmetal or black.

    man atleast all your body parts line up. I have the same color as you. but my front end was smashed good. I have to drill out the drivers side żlight wall thingy? and put that on my car. weld it in spot and yahoo!. but i'm in the process of efi swap. whew that's a bunch of work.

    looks good though other wise... paint is a deffinate good thing.

    Yeah you caught me, the junkyard was my friend on body repair, but like Vanilla said, it is cheap.

    As far as big wheels where i live, it's not too bad, but i only have 15" with 205-50-15's so i wouldn't really consider those big. There are a lot of bumps that don't really like the lower car though.
