TONS of Pics of my FD

Hey guys,
I had the car detailed on my B-Day a while ago, and decided I'd post the pictures of it before it's down for a while. I have a lot of work ahead of me, so we might as well all relish in its beauty

Enjoy

Exterior:

Well, the FD's engine went first. Just turns out the previous owner of the truck never changed the oil. The truck has 36,500 miles *sigh*

Ya I still have them. They're in my sig. I just need to get tires for the front ones. I actually like the way the car drived better with the stock wheels, but it just looks so damn good lowered on my Racing Harts

Definitely not a rear bumper, but I'm considering perhaps FEED sideskirts and Adjustable wing, and the old RE Diffuser.

That's mild for the exterior though to me.

In 2-5 years, I'm going wild on the entire car. For now, it will stay mostly as is til I graduate college. Just a little love here and there

They did a really good job detailing it, the car looks clean as hell, congrats .

A few questions: Is that a stock shift ****? Also, why do you have a vented cap on the rad fill neck?

Someone asked about an appropriate cleaner for the interior, instead of armor all. I use Meguiar's Natural Shine Rubber and Vinyl Protectant. Really works amazingly well.

Ya, that's the stock shift **** when the leather gets taken off of it. I got the car that way. It's ugly, but it feels nice.

Is the cap on the fill neck a no-no?

The kind of cap you have on seams to seal better than the other kind. But only for about a year then you have to replace it. Just some thing to watch for.
