Thumbs up Couple new pics of the SE.

I washed my car for the first time today since I got it. Cleaned up fairly nice. What do you think?







Now as soon as I get my hardware, I can put my glass roof in.

BEAUTIFUL! You might want to consider Iotis's clear taillights on that beauty.

Thumbs up Love the color, too, heh!

Very nice!

You know, those phone dial wheels don't look half bad on your car

My SE sits the same way. I think they all do (including yours, gump ) It's not that the front is too low, but the rear sits too high, imo...

I've been wondering if there is a way to lower the rear to match the front better, but I certainly don't mind it the way it looks.

Yeah, I was really worried about the tires rubbing the fenders up front on turns and bumps, but they don't.

After I repainted them, the phone dials look "ok" but I still am getting rid of them, just not my taste at all.

I'm still trying to work out my fuel problem, and after driving it thismorning, I think it may be the fuel pump itself. So I gotta go buy one of those.

Anyone know exactly where it's located in line? And has anyone ever changed one, how was it?

It's underneath, towards the rear on the driver's side.

Not too hard to replace...
