The graphics are definitely working for the car, i agree that possible the simple graphics allow for the wing to look tasteful. Nice car, you definitely made it work, and it is certainly reasonable.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'm glad that people like it. As from my disclaimer, I wasn't planning on getting so many positive comments. I go to Haverford College outside philly and the pics were taken at Bryn Mawr College, they have a beautiful campus and I was getting all kinds of wierd looks for taking pics of my car. I'll post replies to the questions that you guys asked soon. thanks again

Here are my responses to any of the questions that were asked.

zeteched: I got the strut tower brace from a local performance shop. You can order it from any of these shops or order it online as well. It comes in yellow and I just painted it with some high heat paint.

nyceboi: the rims are Axis NE-0's. they're not made for the contour but you can have them drilled at a machine shop to fit. If you order them from a performance shop, they'll have them drilled for you.

kcbuckeye2: the extinguisher was originally put in to add to the "race" look of the car but I have been seeing more and more burnt cars that have been in crashes and car fires so I feel that it's somewhat justified.

bicycle019: the yellow in the turn signals are hidden by reflective vinyl. It reflects light at night so that it looks like actual clear corners. It's kinda ghetto but it got the job done and I don't have to look at the ugly yellow corners every time I look at my car.

exdelayed: I did try polish, they're a lost cause. But I do have a plan to take care of that....That'll have to wait until next summer when I have money again, but it will be well worth the wait

soccer2017: Ummm no it cannot beat any MTX car and I wish it was MTX but I bought it at the auction under a budget so I sorta had to take what i could get. It is a Duratec though so she does have some power.

Once again, thanks for all of your comments and I'll post new pics again when the trunk gets painted....which will hopefully be soon but these mechanical repairs are killing me. Take care everyone and thanks for all of your advice in this and other forums. This car would not look the way it does today without this site.

Your engine compartment looks awesome. I'd like to do the same in my engine compartment to match my Optima yellow top battery.

I think my engine compartment needs a similar treatment (only in yellow...)
