Not fond of the Bomex kit- but that color is SICK! I have always loved silver on the FC's. Muy sexy.

1REV'n7: Why do you find it funny its my car?

The tires are 255's in the rear....I had 275's but didn't like the brand so I'm waiting for some others.

I don't 100% care for the BoMex bumper either, but its better than stock ( in my eyes) and it was cheap... I bought some non flipup lights from another car which were going to fab in there over the Winter so stay tuned... I'll have to cut into the bumper sp FTP lenses aren't real issue

The first photo has the OZ wheels on it which are 17 x 8's sp you can see the difference in width from the new ones.

and that engine photo is so old, and the wire mess is cleaned up now too

anyway.... thanks Jason

I didn't mean to come off as laughing at you car/you, it was just funny coincidence that I happen to see you and now I see you on the forum.... I mean I saw you a while ago, driving to school, and my buddy and I dropped our jaws, car looks great!

The Bomex front does give it a fresher appearance. Great looking car, man! No money and no car makes Prowla go something something... Ah well, I gotta wait till my move back to Jacksonville before I can get a car.

Very NICE, you said you got the bumper for cheap where? I happen to really like it. And the color is bow down! Very clean and classy.
