Hey guys, I haven't posted pics in here lately. I had my tails tinted last summer and had my factory wheels powdercoated black. I think it turned out nice and clean. Let me know what you guys think.

Yes I know I need to touch up the lower fascia... It will get done when I do the spring detail... It drives me crazy!

Clean ass end. New Minnesota license plates.. and a Stainless license bracket, Looks good. Kinda matches the factory emblems.

yea... The State Patrol has talked to me about it.. They say they need to be visible from 500ft during the day... Knock on wood but I have only got one ticket for the windows and one for the tails.. Where you from in Mn?

Malefic.. I thought about it but will I have issues with motor and tranny alignment?? or is it as easy as lowering springs? What about steep driveways? Im house shopping and that has been a concern for me...

i agree with him ^ but instead of getting black lettering.. just ace them. the trunk will look soo much cleaner.

What you mean "Ace" them? Is that like remove them? I am contemplating that idea.. I love the look of your car also.

Thanks for all the comments everyone! It feels good to hear the kind words about something when you put a bunch of time and lots of money into it! :-)

If you install Vinnie's spacers after lowering your ride, you won't have any issues depending upon the springs you use.
