Taillight was my first mod. After that, I felt the front end is not as good as the rear, so I updated the headlights. Which megan did you get?

Looking forward to see how far this goes.

The modded SC's on here run the gamut from mild to wild!

Tuterz Progress-photo0388.jpg

not sure on the specs of the wheels.. but i know they are a 2 piece 20's theres no brand or anything on them.. look expensive but i got it for a hell of a deal.. so i decide to use them for now.. might put something different on in the future.. ill post pics once i get the coilovers on..
