The car is a little dusty, I can't drive in except for on my property until november 3rd, my license is supended.

Here's the old school:

Thanks man, I know the rims aren't matching. I'm saving up fro some new silver fn01r-c's and new tires. I got the back wheels for $75 with barely used Kuhmo Ecsta 712's. The front ones are badass too, they were on it from the dealership, Oldschool Hayashi raicng ****.

It was $2000, wish it was better for the money though, it cost me most of the money I made with my summer job.

It's pretty good though.

Car looks good . I know how you feel about wanting more for your money. I spent about the same on a paint job about a year ago and it is starting to flake in some spots.

It's Carbon Fiber, but it's hard to tell. I don't reccomend buying one. It's really crappy quality, I was surprised considering the reputation Speed Machine Performance has.

Haha

I really did, a few of my buddies have RX-7's too, so we all had the same 7 on the hatch glass there. I took mine off though. My car is too sketch with it. It was like a local club thing.
