Just bought my green beauty Friday. I've attached a picture of her.
When I saw what color she was in the online ad, I about flipped. Probably gonna call her Jade and get her a vanity plate to match.

It's there. It's just body-colored. The one on the back is chromed.

Looks very nice! Have you considered getting the aero kit for it? You might be too low...

This is the HID headlight conversion ballast. The wires were especially short for some reason so I had to be creative on the placement of them...

Ive been wanting a kit for a long time. Im waiting until I graduate and move back down south where I can take care of it. Ive always wanted to get the Autobahn or Shine Replica kit, but they are difficult to find nowadays.
I am too low right now, but I will be raising it this week. Thank you adjustable coilovers!

motor is totally stock with a K&n filter and a light tune with my COBB. aside from that its got catless exhaust, powertrix coilovers, BHR motor mounts, S2 trans, RB flywheel, exedy stage 2 HD clutch, and evo-r swaybar endlinks. so really not much done to it at all. this car is now my Daily driver since I wanted boost for drifting and had the choice of selling my old daily and boosting this, or selling my daily and buying the rx7 I have. the 7 cost me about the same if not less than it would have cost to properly boost the 8 and the 7 is WAYY faster than the 8 so im happy with it
