it all looks amazing man but i know u did interior/stereo work.....lets see those pics Vlad. i decided against more of the XXX's im just gonna add another amp to further power it fronts wider (more aggressive pull) than the rear? you know this is RWD Vlad, no slicks up front lol.
As far as the fronts being wider. They are really close like within a mm or 2 but the reason why they may look more aggressive is due to the overall size of the rear to the front. There is much more material to build up to the arches in the rear than in the front.
LOL. Thanks
Nope no sunroof, car was configured this way when purchased new by the original owner. Car was bought in LA had all options except navi, heated seats and sunroof. Go figure. I like the lack of sunroof the car feels stiffer.
Thank you!
Thanks!

Been a while since I updated this thread. Too many things going on in life. The car was put on the back burner. Once I found the shop to install the audio they did a horrible job. Interior wise it is still not 100% where I want it to be but at this point I just want it done. I have maybe another 2 to 3 weeks of work left to do. But here are some in progress and teaser pics of the car.
Mocking up the trim rings on the front doors:
Bigger alternator for all of the electrical, DC Power 275 Amps:
Trunk almost complete:
Picked up a LX-Mode Grill (thanks to my friend Al)
Since the lower door pocket was cut out to accommodate a speaker I decided to add lights to the bottom of the door, came out pretty nice:
Decided to do the first ever Foglight HID retrofit. The projectors are morimoto matchbox projectors [bi-xenon/low & high beams], micro eyelid shrouds [chrome], oem housing & clear lenses (thanks to Hidillusionz for the great work):
Some Random pics of the car, yes its dirty :
Some Videos of the car from my instagram:
Rolling:
Audio(all distortion is from mic on my phone):
