^For the Headlight buff, use "Plastix" by miguiars. It works awesome.
Very good condition GS!

Be careful with the Nankangs in the wet. Looks clean. You gonna drop it?

Thanks guys , ...nothing too crazy done to it. The headlight buff I've done a few times already , doesnt get much cleaner due to my previous HID's burning the inside of the headlight , just going to replace them with new ones I believe.

Def going to drop it!!! , still researching what to use , ...OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS.............

Welcome to the forums!


Cheap route shocks and springs

Expensive route coils or bags
