Looks like a lot of work!

Hard to tell due to the lighting but the FD's paint looks off. The front bumper fitment is not good either.

er the paint. lol well you can hear it for him. but long story short, he did the whole paint job himself, and when he did the doors there was no ventilation, so the fumes got to him so he did what he could. haha. and the front bumper is being held on my zip ties at the moment. hahaha. needs a lil work and itll be good to go.

well the reason for the 19 is because of the low mileage.

I will respray the doors sometime...

The bumper.. is a Sarona Bumper... really rare...

Except yes, I drift the crap out of it... and therefore the bumper kept getting ripped off.

So it's held on by zip ties. It's coming off because one of the zipties were ripped off and I'm going to mount it fully because... I'm back in NJ and there is no drifting for free here..


and no I'm not street drifting...

But doing 150 mph.. the car would ignite because the isolator on the primary rails was destroyed. Even though I have put new ones in! ARGH! makes me mad... so now I got them on order.

they are like 5 cent parts... they costed 6 dollars each
FmyLife!!!!
