great choice! Old school mesh or panasports are the only way to go on a 1st gen.

scoop should be around here.




The only reason I have'nt got rid of mine, is cause I don't wan't to leave that hole there. Can't wait for that reverse hood.

o well i like the scoop where it is, might even put it a bit lower since i have not cut the hole in the hood yet. it will be the most functional where it is and it looks nice & clean there, thats where it stays

Nice wheels, man! They look exactly like my Riken's, which are a knock off of a knock off of a knock off, or something like that. Haha.
