Really nice

Lots of time & money - speaking of money, mind me asking what it cost to make it look as it does now?

The bodykit was @ $700.00 with shipping. The wheels and tires were $1500.00 from wheelmax.com Brakes were about $250.00 with shipping from ebay. Springs around $200.00 Gotta love the ebay! Hood was @ $650.00 shipped. Rear wing $200.00 from summit.com The exhaust work was @ $300.00. And finally bodywork and paint (And it took a lot of bodywork) was @ $3000.00

I have another grand in the A/V system. 3 monitors, PS2, Sony head, Concept amp, 4 Audiobahn subs. Amazingly enough the factory JBL speakers have done very well.

Looks nice. I could imagine that in like the Japan GT....
BTW...I got my in car in the shop to install the BW kit and wing, any ideas on what a good estimate is for install and paint (kit and wing only)? I was quoted around $1200. I'm still waiting on a more solid figure though. I know that the rear bumper and side skirts are gonna take some work. Anyone know what exactly has to be done?

Well if your kit is anywhere near as f'd up as mine was it will take a LOT of work. I'll try to get some pics up but the rear looked like it was for a widebody kit and stuck out 6-8 inches on both sides. The side skirts were so bad we didn't even use them. Just make sure the shop you use knows fiberglass and how to fix it. I have seen some kits put on by "Proffesional" shops that look like a 3rd grader with a tub of play-doh was turned loose on it.

Ditch that license plate when you take pictures first of all.
Im running hot and cold about the paint job, maybe because the rest of your car is white....
Those canards and that silly antenna on your rear glass are not for me, if you like them, by all means keep them.

Other than that I do like your rims, and what you did to the trunk is certainly unique.

Gee sorry about that, I didn't mean to offend you by having my license plate on when I took the pic. As for the silly antenna it was all the shop had when I put the XM in. Anyway everything is a matter of personal preference. so I realize it's not for everybody. I know when I lift my WRX people are gonna crap but hey, I like the rally style.

Hey Bro! You do your thing! It does not matter if no one likes it because it is unique to you and for your satisfaction. You know it looks good then its all good! Sometimes people take a sip of haterade! :drinking:

Other then that. I love your unique style and it stands out like the Statue of Liberty! Keep up the good work!
