The seats took a while to put in. You have to take the tracks off the first gen seats and modify them to fit. If anyone whats to know how to make them work email me and I will give you more info.
Thanks for the seats greg. They give the car a hole new look.
See you on the 6th

Hehe, love it. Like the Rotary Inside logo. Is it custom or can something like that be ordered?
I'm assuming since you added those sweet seats, you added the rotary inside logo on the back window?

Sorry to bring up the stripes....AGAIN, Sorry. But I believe stripes are dodge inspired. And I unfortunetly hate dodge because my bro's former Dodge Daytona shelby Z was a great quick car and broke down constantly. I understand the concept of "breaking it up". Unfortnately the daytona incident made me biaised against all dodge looking cars and especially stripes. That and rice. Thats why I will never let any stick on my paint in any fashion, even under a clear coat, its forbidden. I hate RICE! LOL. My stock '85 GSL had red pin striping on the edge of the fenders and I happily removed them, I also removed the rubber molding like you have, thats cool. NExt FB I get, I will remove the side reflecters and wield them smooth to add a more smooth look. Other wise I think your car looks Good.

Absolute Power is Awesome
It's high in front because otherwise the offset on those wheels cause the tire to rub on the wheel wells over any kind of bump right? My first aftermarked set of wheels was offset by .25 inches more than stock and I chewed up the side of the front tires pretty quickly.

I think that if the car was any lower, it wouldn't look so balanced. Now that car looks good and it looks like it could probably go for a drive in the country as well. Those slammed cars not only have poor rear suspension geometry, but they aren't practical for the street.
As for the body style, the blue is nice, but I'm really partial to the black trim both on the bumpers/doors/body and around the windshield. The car looks great though, the trim issue is just a matter of taste. The wheels are very nice as well. As for the stripe, it's very well done and fits with the car's customised image.

removing the plastic bump guards seemed easy enough to me so i heated it up and started pullin... it was goin good then i hit the middle and i guess since its been painted befor and its older paint, it riped off chunk... so yea you are prolly gonna have to do some minor bondo work...
