Default Quebecker ballin' on a budget

I've been lurking here for a while and i want to thank everyone for the info on here. Now its time to show you the big gurl....

Got it for 1200$ cdn. Pretty cheap drove perfect but had minor damage on both right corner.










I changed both broken corner lights and painted the wheels




Lowered it on megan EZ










Maybe too much










Lol with my stupid neon shoes



Time for some wheels since i wanted to keep cost down i went with XXR 521 platinium. 18x11 +20 in the back and 18x9.5 +35 in the front. Front needed 15mil spacer to fit the caliper.











Tires i chose Achillies ATR sport 265/35 and 235/40. I like them













She needed a bit of a roll in the rear fenders but thats it










As of now this is how she sits.

welcome and great intro! i've imagined the high beams are used for DRLs since they are mandatory in canada, but never seen them on until now.

be sure to take care of the maintenance such as the timing belt done every 90k miles. there are thread to show how to do it yourself! there is never such thing as too low haha!
