Beautiful... Car looks good man. The yellow ones are so pretty

It is the Apex'i nose, all I remember is that it uses one of the Catz driving lights. But they are bright as hell. I may have the nose off soon to plumb my air intakes under the headlights, I'll look what lights they are then.

The Integrals are 18*8 and 18*9 Currently running S-03 pole positions. I originally got the Integrals with BFGoodrich G-force KD, Best damn tire I have ever had on the car. Next time those go back on.

A few people have mentioned lowering it, but as my daily driver with a 'glass front end, I really hesitate to lower it in concern of shattering the nose ofer a wayward bump, RR track or some other traumatic encounter.

How many inches do you have right now to the bottom edge of the lip. My car is lowered but I love that nose! And the driving lights would make a big difference.

Sweet ride ,,,

I can't measure it right now, but I KNOW that the nose is about 3/4 to one inch lower than the TOP of a parking stop. I didn't hit one and break it, but checked it right after I got the nose and remembered that I MUST always either back in, or make damn sure I don't pull too far up to the curb stop. At least that will give you an idea of how low it is.

Good: Color, wheels....
Bad: Front bumper (Does not fit well, put original back), big wheel gap (needs to be lowered).

Esprit? (or are you going to keep us guessing?)

Nice to see some other long term owners taking good care of the marque without completely bastardizing it.

Your front bumper was one of the finalists for mine, but I went back to stock, or my insurance company would not cover it if the paint flaked a couple of years down the road! Go figure.

Damn, you've owned yours 2 months longer than me!

it gotta be a lotus esprit, but not a v8
. if they came in 4 cylinder models?

yellowbird

Yes, that is exactly it, a 93 Esprit SE. My friend was away for spring break, and wanted me to do some work on the Esprit. Exhaust, intake and whatever else I can do to make it faster. Oh and yes the Esprits before the late 90's were turbo 4 cyl. He's not amused my RX is faster and handles better. Oh well. I'll have to get my camera back to take pictures of it.

Thanks Ron, I appreciate it. I agree about bastardizing it, some I have seen are getting a bit F&F for my tastes. To each his own. I liked this nose and the 99 nose. I wonder who we have here are original owners and who is the longest owner.
I need to do the hot air out mod, that looks like a worthwhile mod. I have to keep an eye on your ghetto mods, I like them, they are cheap and they work.

Great car in a great color!
It looks like you have kept the car in perfect shape and really take care of it.
Is that the original paint? It looks a shade different than the other CYMs I have seen (or maybe the color on my screen is screwed up).
