alright guys..

i finally got around to taking some pix of my baby. i was debating but i need some before and after pix so...here r the before. i was on cruise trough march of this year..(in the navy) and i had my car a buddies house..(kickiing my slef for that) and obviously soemone backed into it..so my buddy sez. either way the guy that hit me paid for the damages and i just put on the new fenders, i still need a new passengers side headlight..(preferably stock :nudge nudge wink wink::). im going tomorrow to get some estamtes on a refit and paint job.

and with our further adew my baby.

Other than the fenders with fish gills it's a nice looking car. (I prefer the stock or '99 spec if you haven't guessed :) )

As in aftermarket or HID bulbs? Do you like pop ups or non pop ups?

You need to cover up the hole on the top of the stock intercooler duct

I just took a sheet of thin aluminum from Lowe's/Home Depot, cut it to size, and pop riveted it to the duct.

nope, no gasket. It sits nice and tight on there, so if any air is escaping it is very minimal and nothing to worry about.
