Pictures of my ride*

Here's some more recent pics of my Solara. I tinted the corners, painted the wheels, and outlined and painted the tailights myself as well. Tell me what u guys think. Please disregard the hairy legged guy reflecting off my car, he is a figment of your imagination (coilovers on the way!)

Heres how my car looked when I first got it

And here is is now!

Hey it's looking pretty good. I like the black wheel/red caliper combo. Really pops. Also good job on the tails.

I'm following in 1gse and others footsteps with a turbo. As of right now, Im considering a rear mount turbo, mainly because I wouldn't need a intercooler. Im going to do all the work myself of course.

Looks good man.

Hey! That looks a lot like north Alabama.
Howdy Neighbor. Nice work but I can't wait
to see it in person. Lets shoot for next Sunday.
For a minute, looking at the second picture, I
thought I saw a Goodyear tire on the passenger
front with raised white letters. I've been entertaining
the idea of getting a set of tires with raised white
letters like the muscle cars used to have back in
the 70's, but it's just a thought. I see that you are
quite handy with your Solara. Keep up the good
work, Christian. Jimmm

Thanks Jim! Those are goodyears, but not white lettering. Yup its northeast alabama. I'll see if i gotta work sunday, Cant make any promises though, as I get called in at the last minute usually all the time. If nothing else, we should set up a meet sometime this year, I know there are a few of s Alabamians on here, heck even quite a few Tennessee folks as well

Those tails look great, and the tinted turns look cool as well! Nice job on the diy's.
