I totally agree - You need to give that car a little TLC and take care of the little things and quit slapping on parts.... you need to keep up with that, it all goes hand in hand - after awhile your car will start to look like a beater... just my $.02 - I have been there before - JOE
OK first of all I'M NOT JUST SLAPPING ON PARTS. The side were flared out 1 inch if I didn't do that the doors would hit everytime I opened them. 2nd I didn't want to widen the bottom of the bumpers becasue it just wouldn't look right(thats why I'm doing a complete widebody next year). If you saw the car in person you would know what I mean, it actually looks good having the sideskirts stick out a bit. My car ahs been at teh beater stage too and I WILL NEVER LET IT GET BACK TO THAT. As for TLC I do give it lots of TLC just because I don't do things the way you would don't tell me that I'm not giving my car TLC.

Looking good Aaron. I was impressed by the way on how it sounded. I didn't know it sounded that throaty. What muffler do you have on there? I may have to put one on my Mystique when it goes which will be sooner than later I am afraid. Also how was that speed bump?  I got a couple of pics of your car from the meet. Shoot me a pm if you want me to send you copies. Cheers, Mark

Hey Mark, thanks for the complimant, I have a ractive muffler on there now and when I get money I'm going to get a different one. I do have an extra aftermarket exhaust sitting at home, fi you are insterested let me know, it's aPower1 and when we put it on my freinds Mazda 626 his car sounded like a VR6. That speed bump was pretty bad did you here my lip scrape?  Keith was out his window when he heard it and we were both laughing about it. I would really like to see the pics if you want you can just post them in this thread and I will just save them to my computer. Thanks. Aaron

Actually I kind of did but I didn't realize it would hit the way it did. before it only made a little scraping sound, this time it was just bad.

i love it how people only know how to cut up a car. its not your car so what gives you the right to cut up his car.

Hay Aaron the car looks good. I was thinking of painting my hood like that but with charcoal grey. Tell me about the front bumper, how much did it cost to have the 2 grafted together, and how hard was it to do. I'e wanted an SVT front bumper ever since I bought the car.....Thanks.
