Sweet! Miss my IS dearly...

 

Welcome, looks very nice so far, I really like the black tail lights.

 

Nice, luv'ng the band aid LOL

Makes me want to paint my tails again

 

your car got hurt :'( lol. nice

 

I like the way the tails went back together clean. Good job, on all of it!

 

Nice work on the tails.

Droppage anytime soon? =)

 

thanks guys! sorry i havent been on lately. anyways, the tails took forever! i didnt have an electric dremel, nor a metal dremel head, thus, taking an entire day with cutting and letting paint cure and silicone drying.

and i just ordered my Tanabe Sustec Pro Coilovers today, should be in by next week! im stoked on that, and ill def. keep you updated.

as for the band-aid, the previous owner ran into something, looks like the shape of a trailer hitch, so i covered it up with a bandaid until i get new bumpers.

stay tuned

 

that band aid looks unique!

 

nice ride bro!!

 

thanks guys. coilovers comin in on Wed/Thur
