Wow, nice lookin car man! I'm usually not a fan of 7 spoke wheels or gold wheels, but yours look really nice on that car. And I didn't even notice you had SE sideskirts, they blend in really well. My only "criticism" if you will is I'm not feelin the contour.org on the windshield. I think thats more the font and the lack of curve to it than anything though. Overall, very nicely done. Oh, and why does your steering wheel look black in the one pic?

Yipes! The CEG has sunk to new lows.
Exhibit A: ATX Zetec Contour with....
-painted brake drums from some white trash's Grand Am GT -an incomplete SVT bodykit that screams 'I shot my wad on the bumpers and ran out of paycheck advances' -a video screen since you're all outta quarters for the arcade -enough stereo/ICE to run with the best of the NBA's forgettable 4th string bench sitters
With all those mods, this car can prolly be coaxed into delivering the same 98.35 HP that the de facto ricemobile, a 93 1.6L Civic, is known for.

Did you consider that he might not be out to go fast? 
Some people just like to look good. I think it's incredible. If I hadn't noticed the rear drums or the ATX shifter, I would've believed it was an SVT through and through.

Um, that was more than unnesessary, what the hell is up with the CEG lately? Asshats running rampant in the forums!
I'm looking for some reason for you to have made these remarks but I'm just not seeing them.

That is a pretty nice layout. The exterior is particularly nice...about the only thing I'd not have done is painted the drums, but that's no big.

do me a favor man, come trade me places here in IRAQ and ill fix those issues right up . no but seriously, for the german tag, i had two weeks for leave to try and get what i wanted and the auto store didnt have it...........so being half german and the numbers goin for my unit im with, i said what the hell, itll do for now. the painted drums, i figured the red looked better than nothin but itll do till i get the rear brake conversion. the gold rims, they go well with TRed (thats just me maybe, but i love em and love how they flow with the tour). oh and the contour.org, gotta make sure i do my part to represent the site .
when i get home of course, the whole car is gettin redone, not much just goin to add a few things that i have sittin at the house and get it repainted........itll still be TRed though, gotta love that color.
thankyou all for your many comments, i see when you know how to post pics, you tend to get a few more replies back rather when ya dont. i hope you all are doin great back home and thankyou so much again for the support.
