    "Thats what I call a 20... 20... 20."
    Something my brother would say.

    Anyways it looks great lowered... I was so happy the first time I lowered my car... I finally felt like I was a part of the crowd... the crowd being all the kids I used to hang with: they was a Toyota Mini truck 22R, Nissan NX, RX-7, CRX, and one 3G Coupe.

    It either from a LUDE, RX-7, or a SUPRA... I totally forgot but I've seen this style of kit on all those cars... I hav eto find the original kit I took the bumper from... it's just a photoshop job.. not real... yet.

    hey thanx guys, i really appreciate the good comments.

    staticpat. yea all my paint is good on the car except the roof, its sorta faded and has been touched up, only noticable when i look at it close, also my trunk is started to fade, but other than that the paint is good.

    i've spent so much time on the engine compartment, it was so dirty when i first got it. i used like 50 cans of degreaser, and i used mothers aluminum polish on the valve cover and the otehr metal parts.

    it look better in person cuz my camera kinda sucks and the pics are fuzzy,

    thanx again guys
