man, that's super nice, especially with the arc box. i always look at pics of your car on ht and stuff.
oh, is your upper rad hose at a weird kink or is it just the picture?
i've got mine gutted from the front seats back right now but i am about sick of hearing my rear suspension on these bumpy roads where i live. haha.

I like it all except for the wheels, mirrors, sideskirts, color, and lack of interior...

That ARC box just is "it" for me. I don't know why. Thats a great engine bay though.
Are those NRG hood shocks? If so, what fitment are they from?
