well... picked up a sol about 2 months ago and then learned about her history... shes been passed around like a dirty whore. but oh well... she's still got good blood lines.

i've put my fair share of sweat and greenbacks so tell me what you think about her story...

heres where the story begins:

I have an extra set of 1piece black housing amber corner headlights, BNIB.. Chris has been lusting after them, but I dunno if he's keeping his sol.. if he sells his sol, I might have them up for sale... I just sold my extra ninja sol for an s13 hatch, so I have no use for them.. I'll let you know if I sell em.

They don't even compare

Mr. Clean
03-01-2008, 06:58 PM
haha mainly just color reference... i PM'd bucky on how much for polishing the green and black on the inside of the spokes... if it's reasonable then i'll have an possible temp. alternative for the kermits. and i could maybe get more out of the fat fives... even though i have said over and over that i dont like those wheels. w/e

thanks for the thread bump yo!! haha...

im going "JDM" i guess... that style can go so many directions now... just OEM with drop and wheels... and maybe some other whoreish items haha... but yeah man i really really really need to come down soon... its been forever since i've seen you guys.

blah and no engine swap anytime soon... its already good enough for me... maybe a mild build sooner or later or maybe a b18 but i probably wouldnt do that unless i got really bored haha.

oh and welcome importatlanta mr tennesseean! haha i've been here long enough now that i have to rep where i stay! thanks for the props and i'll give you your first reps son
