Kristel- Thanks for the approval :D

Dave- Yea, it's running decent these days. What's the percentage of work left on yours?

Jake- I wish it was that easy to get orders to Eglin. I would LOVE to be stationed there.

knightz- I love the 1jz deeply!!! I mean...I LOOOOOVE IT!!! J/k, it is pretty swee though

Ben- I think the tail completes it. I would like to get some bomex sides maybe. I just like the look of it now.

SupraFan55- I like the combo of the front and tail as well. I wasn't sure on how everything looked until I put it on. Now I'm lovin it. But, as Ben said, I made the exhaust. It's a full 3'' with a hi-flow cat and 3'' muffler.

Intothenight19- Thanks man. I definitely love the Volks. Especially the price I got them for makes it that much sweeter. But, we can meet up for sure.

Very nice! Very clean! Love what you've done with the shallow pockets the AF issues, LOL. How did you paint your panels? Is it done with a gun? What sort of paint prep did you do? Sorry for all the questions, just want to know how I can fix my paint/body blemishes.

Very wise decision!!! :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

I like the look of the whaletail. I'm now hesitant if I want to keep the front bumper. The more I look at it, the more I don't like it. I'm thinking about seeing if someone on here with an 89+ front bumper and an aftermarket lip might want to trade. Still debating though.

I really feel this car, read the thread and build progress. Nothing like the satisfaction you get from doin it yourself unlike my non-mechanically inclined ass.. LOL

I'm not a big fan of paying someone when I can do it for free. Plus if I mess something up, I'm the one to blame.
