well its been a while since i posted some pics thanks to photobucket locking my account since i have too many pics. haven't really been able to do a good photoshoot but i'll try and get one done.

i'll start out with my car on a flatbed.

i broke down and turned out to be bad coils. can you guess which ones? i borrowed some used coils until i can get my BHR coil upgrade.

Your car looks great! I think you should paint part of your hood like Biotoxin's car... that would look badass.

thanks. i was originally thinking that. in fact thats who i got the idea from to buy this hood. i think i've grown to like it how it is now though, it gives it more character.

I'm sure it's the angle and such... but your exhaust tip seems REALLY close to your bumper... any issues with melting?
