I hate to say it man, but its kinda cheese, but maybe I have just seen too much of the whole DIY trim paint on the wrong cars so im now jaded. Is that a full tanabe exhaust or just the tip...

LOL - dude its a stick, look at the the shifter and count the pedals. And if mine eyes don't deceive those are Tokico Blues, but I can't place the springs. Not stock either.
Are those the Konig Theorys? I've always liked them personally, have never seen them on a 'vic, though I don't get let out of the house much. What kind of paint did you use in the engine bay? I've been going with the blue theme in the engine bay as well - VC, BOV, WG, vacuum manifold - all blue. I'm not feeling the interior accents, but whatever blows your hair back. I had those tails at one point, and they look a lot better smoked than do with all that chrome showing. Overall, I really like the ride. Looks like you care a lot about it and paid a lot of attention to the little things.

Like what you did with the Tail lights . Rims aren't bad I would have gone with carbon black and a chrome lip for offset. You should prob think about painting you drums as well the surface rust takes away from your ride. Other than that it looks great keep up the good work, i can't wait to see what else your going to do.

EJOMan did but he edited his post to take it out. Too funny! Kind of a Homer, "Doh!" moment. I should have quoted it to memorialize it in html forever! Oh well, it was funny while it lasted.
jrock, just put the standard "No Fat Chicks" sticker in the back windshield and call it a day.

nice, but i would get rid of that cigarette plug, i'd cut the wires and run them into the back of the cig lighter, so you dont see it...if you want to be able to shut it off, get a switch lol

i like it man....it's nice to see something original and not trying to fit the "JDM" cookie cutter that everyone uses to stamp out their car lately. If you dig it, drive it.
