This is sadly my car, well how it was when I bought it:
Note the MR style fins, different color painted rims(not just lighting) the fart cans etc. When I washed it the first time the front paint chipped off the chrome rims! Also had winter tires in the rear and summers in the front! When I lowered it, we found under glow lighting bracket under neath too! lol
This is it now, slow process with limited funds
but getting there.:
before someone asks, its was a lot cheaper(2600) than the others in the area when I bought it. Oh and no more fart cans, just a stock exhaust, still missing the exhaust surround on one side....again slow process...

some of the winners I spotted this week
custom JDM fenders, y0!
the good news is, if you can't find your car at night it'll GLOW IN THE DARK.

meh, the pic doesn't show the spray painted exterior in most places, multiple dings, scratches, etc. BUt the biggest thing is that all of those stickers are stance oriented and those look like stock wheels.

At least you have one ziptied, I have a big freaking hole in my bumper! And a wife that says it doesn't "need" to be replaced. WTF, its a damn shame! At least she didn't complain when i put in Plugs/wires/and coils, cause that was needed(LS2 coils)!

i took both my shrouds off because im going to do something about all the dirt on them, and they're really faded, so i might just paint them gloss back as well as the rear bumper where the rotor accent is, cuz its just dirt and stuff down there, and my fender vents too, they're just sooo faded. im SORRY!!!
if thats the hole you're referring to... i was gonna get an AP catback, so i took them off.. but now its literally another pipe dream, so oh well. my driver side exhaust's bottom clip on and part where the screw goes is broken, so it just hung there... zip tie in progress shortly
p.s. i wasnt sure if they were hubcaps, but maybe he just had big rims... after all, everything is bigger in TEXAS.. even its letters
