PICS - Summer Transformation & New Fogs!!!!

Hey everyone, before I pay for my college tuition, I'd like to have a little moment of glory by posting what I've been doing with some of my saved money over a full time summer job.

NEW FOGS:

^Yep, after 2 hours of labor and 3 broken hacksaw blades

NOW FOR THE DRAMATIC PART

(BEFORE THIS SUMMER):
I was once a ricer - oh those high school days.

The hideous hood scoop that got me flammed back in this post: http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=259465

CURSED ALTEZZA LIGHTS THAT LEAKED EVERYTIME IT RAINED!!!:

THE AHHHH GHETTO CHROME RIMS (now on lil bro's teg):

AND NOW TO PRESENT DAY - TODAY!!:

HOOD SCOOP OFF!!! Just took it off yesterday. Thank God for 3M adhesive remover and lost of scrubbing. No scratches or marks whatsoever - saved me a paint job!

PUT BACK OEM CAUSE ALTEZZAS WERE FREAKING NASTY

LAST 2 PICS TO WRAP UP - I PROMISE!:
Thrifty I.C.E with GPS Nav:

Oh - and did I mention I used to have mirror tint b4 this summer???

I know my car isn't perfect now, hell, it may still look disgusting but it's always still under work until I run out of mods lol

Thanks for looking!!!! This new vic personality really makes me feel better as I am most disgusted at how I used to drive around in the old days like that.

Played frisbee with dad yesterday with it

It's just laying somewhere in my garage now.

Edit:
Well it rained pretty bad on my way back from work so I couldn't take off the tip. Ended up installing a photoshop CD a buddy gave me and had a lot of fun!! So I slammed my car and did a disney Cars theme. I've seen a thread on this b4, just can't find it. Maybe it got lock?

This is what happens when I'm bored and have too much time on my hands

Kind of proud of what I did b/c I've never done a chop b4

looks 10x better now. but as stated get rid of the exhaust tip and are those also lighted hood squirters. if so you have to ditch those as well man. look into an alteza grille. its the open face and will give the car a lill sportier look. and they are super cheap on ebay.
