Talking Snow?? It's almost April!!

So a few days ago, it was beautiful and sunny. Me and my buddy washed our cars and cleaned them up real nice....later that afternoon it started to SNOW! It's almost April and SNOWING! CRAP! I hate the cold weather up here i'm so ready for summer! It's snowing again right now as we speak! Jeeeez! I know it's still like this in a lot of places, but this is VERY unusual for the PNW. But I was able to get some nice shots of my car I'll post a couple!

White car looks awesome in snow. I really like the nose of the 95-97 Cars, Very clean and on point. I love my 98 nose, but 95-97 is awesome as well. I would love to have one of each. I think white on 95-97 looks better than 98-2000.

Its been said that it can be done many times. But its too costly and requires lots of mods. Not worth it. PLus I think its pretty lame doing it. Just get another one.

thanks everyone! I would love to drop it with some Tanabe DF210s, get it dropped almost 2". Does anyone know how bad the camber will drop? I just don't want to be burning through tires 2x faster or anything.


Nice photoshop Brandicus.... way to make me want it even more! lol
