thanks man. The best part of getting this car was there was so many new parts in the back that my buddy didn't know how to change. But the down side is the ghey APC graphs on the side and the front bumper. Guess that was the trade off lol. My car should be back on the road in 2 to 3 weeks got some minor things to do to get it road legal again

The Outside isnt that bad, The dummy who I bought my FC from had painted the hood black on a red car, UGLY. New Paint job this week is comming. Gonna get a New nice looking red. It will be beautiful.

my goal is to get my car mechanically good then get the rest done.

Welcome again
