Hey guys,, nothing new (yet). Was nice this weekend, so decided to clean up the old girl and snap a few pics. My front and rear bumpers are terrible right now, but will be bodykitted soon, so please excuse the scratches.

 

no more eyelines ehh

still lookin hott man

 

Good to see you have some meat on those tires.

Clean lookin LS, any NYC car would be jealous to have those bumpers, I am tired of repainting my bumper. I may try the clear bra thing next time.

 

LMAO!!! The lashes are still around, just havent installed them. That was a look that I was never really 100% sure of and it had to grow on me. They may reappear again some day, but for now,, au-natural.

I live here in Baltimore, and the roads arent that good down here, which is why I insist on having a little meat on the tires. I know NY got it worse compared to me, but I dont have time to play, go fix the bent rim every so often. If I were somewhere in which the roads were a little better, then I would slam the car to the ground Cali-style. I aint afraid of the ground,, just been there, done that(with another car) so I know the headaches.

 

Very nice and clean.

 

Nice

 

Man that looks just like the car I stole about an hour ago. Nah I'm playin wit ya Trukn. Looking good. Looks like I need to clean up my ES some more before the next meet. lol.

looking good bro

btw I found that little peice to the strut bar if you want it lol.

 

Looking good. Amazing how the gen 1 profile is really not that much different from the gen 2

 

wow man you car looks great. Looks as modern as i remember you telling me. (i thought you were pullin my leg.)

You car is lowered the PERFECT amount. Seriously. I thought I'd keep my car stock but lookin at you car makes me want to reconsider. Its tastefully modded man.

 

Thanks Omar. I am not done with it yet, it is still a work in progress. I still have some more I want to do to it. Considering a bodykit, different wheels, and possible monotone. Other than than, small touch ups' on the imperfections, interior etc. Oh well,, work is never done.

 

i dunno man, I'm likin the two tone. The cladding looks like a brighter shade of silver. Thats not stock is it? I like it. My car is def a work in progress. this summer i'm gonna try and make some LED tails and front turn signals. that and repaint my bumpers and cladding. I'm gonna need a porter cable buffer. As i've said before, I LOVE rubbing compound.

I think I'm also gonna put some 3000k or 4100k xenons in my fogs. Cheap china kit of course. If they crap out, i'll still have my reg headlights.

 

Rubbing compound has definately saved me, you should have seen the condition of this paint before I wore my arm off trying to save it. The lower half is IMO a brighter shade of silver and I don't think it is stock,, was like this when i bought it. I am not feeling it on some days when I look at the car, plus I really dont think the colors would flow well with a bodykit(dunno). I was thinking of either completely changing the color of the car (monotone) or just having a repaint done to help the black(there are some problem areas up close) and having the bottom half painted more of a granite color. Maybe some of the members here can help me decide(photoshop gods, do your stuff). Next mods are definately 6K HIDS in the headlights and maybe 3K in the fogs. Somebody please pm me with the easiest way to work the fogs independent from the headlights. I know there is a thread here but it seems a little confusing to me, I need someone with a first gen who has already done it to walk me thru it 1,2,3. Opening the floor to criticism,,have at it guys.

 

Always liked your LS bro. I see many first gens but none are as sweet as yours.

 

bump for info.
