Coming along well. I would have painted the engine bay before the swap. And I wouldn't paint it green in case you change the rims (damaged or you come to your damn senses).

greasemunkey
04-29-2009, 06:56 AM
gotta say the fitment of the fenders and the headlights with the hood and all is the best I have seen in a while. 0 gap. not a huge fan of green though unless its on volk rims

and you sir are not a poor man. i was making 800 every 2 weeks a little bit ago and barely managed to get most of what you have done. doing everything myself....i guess the tickets i got and drinking every weekend didn't help. :p good job though. lca's are a nice touch
