yeah, i know i have a long way to go blah blah blah.


this is good enough to be happy about till my next investment IMO

but yeah, i'll be getting a paint job. still can't decide to stick with this or to go with another color i've always wanted. and i won't say what color. i'd like you all just to see the finished product and then comment

and all the other necessities like lowering, etc.

just wait, don't hate until you see what i've had planned out from about day 1 since i've had the car. it's good. you'll see. not ricey. just good.



love the rims

It's definitely funny. If people realized that heavy, oversized wheels actually slow the car down, they wouldn't even bother trying to race you. What those Konigs lack in performance enhancement, they make up for in audacity.

At least the wheels look good. Nothing turns a $1000 car into a $3000 car quite like $2000 in wheels. Ask anyone in college hill; they'll agree.

I think the reason everyone wanted to race you is because they know with those huge rims you're a ricer and they can beat you.

My car makes the same noise when it shifts. MrNiceGuy knows this. We deem it... "Boip".
