Default Picture time.

2 years of ownership and I still love this car. Installed willwood bbk with gold powder coated caliphers, Tanabe Touring Medallion exhaust, Wed replica wheels with burgundy step lip, L-sport springs with KYB shocks, RMM sides, rear bumper & 3 piece spoiler, Admiration rep front lip, ebay roof spoiler, factory black chrome grill. I have a set of Q45 retro headlights sitting in the garage waiting to install and getting my roof painted black next week!

IMO, I think the car could go a little lower. Looks like a 2inch gap from tire to fender. Other than that, nice car : )

Aloha, I want to go lower but the wahine won't allow it... I'm bringing the car to Oahu in August so maybe if there aren't many pot holes and speed bumps I can persuade her to allow it. I'm looking forward to driving this down H1/H2/H3/Kam hwy

I got your PM. Where in Texas are you located? This is why I have always loved the 2ng gen. You can take a 15 year old car, do some mods, and make it look like something that was still produced this year. Our body design is timeless...Looks great dude!!
