Nice! Came a hell of a long way from where it started. The before shot looks exactly like my base (but with slightly better paint ). Great job .

thanks guys unfortunately i dont have shots of the three cars together. The wheels are just the bbs vert wheels that i painted gold and polished the lip, nothin special. I thought about selling the fc but i dont think ill get enough money for it right now to satisfy me for all my work.

legit. all you need to really set it off are some low offset wheels and respective tires. or just some spacers for the wheels you have now.
some s5 taillights too

the guy wasnt used to a rwd turbo so he pulled out of a high school with his girl showing off with it and the *** end came around. He overcorrected and put it in the wall. I like the wheels that are on it now because, well, theyre already on it and free. I think ill just get some rear spacers.

Dude that sucks. Starion's are awesome cars... they performed better than FCs during their motorsports spree during the 80's.

Starion/ Conquest are nice once you get past the Head issues or swap in a 4g63, but I would rather have the FC any day. BTW both cars you have done look good.
