Those are the ones but those have just a lil different mesh style in the middle....maybe those are newer ones or something. But these for sure are ford rims, says it right on the back.

haha I'm broke!! I need money for the track and better things....I said screw the header doesnt make a big gain, the exhaust is still gutted so its more than fine. I need to make this car look nice too though....racing involves good looks to if you want to get notice, and I need to paint this son of a!! And get myself some sponsors or something. I'm trying to get footy from the past four track days I've been too, and I'll show you guys, but my friend is lagging lol.

But one thing is for sure the car will never be for sell just the crap from it

What you dont know, is that you need to "freeze" this crap with dry ice first, (or this other stuff they sell, forgot the name) before you start trying to chip it all out.
It should make it considerably easier to remove the stuff.

Yeah, dry ice works great. I did mine with dry ice. Just make sure you wear gloves and be careful with it.

Yup already did but I still have to clean it up. So for now I just stripped the carpet and laid it back in there. When I get time off of school I wanna rip it all out and paint it nice and bright white inside, it's gonna look sick.

I'm trying to get video today! I'm just going to get all the raw video my friend has, hopefully today then I'll put a lil something together tonight. I made it to the top 20 then I fudge up on my top 20 run. I straightened out when coming to the lil downhill hairpin you can see in the pics and that through me off. AHH Motha@)#($!!! Lol but oh well stuff happens, and plus my radiator started going out after a few practice runs. I was leaking water but didn't stop, I jus kept adding inbetween runs. Oh well next time will be better. I could of easily placed if the car wasn't gay.

Oh and yes I just want the mirrors white so people know its me

I gotta ask, what did you do to your driving style to compensate for the new uber grippy tires?

I USED to drift the FC, then i bought the new kumho spt's.

I only run the new tires up front, but still used ones in the back. I cant afford to run new ones all around lol. But I wish I could cause it would be so much nicer. Only technique I can think of is go faster lol.

I do that already. But having new tires up front makes a big difference and pays off in the end.
