Got rid of the eyelids.

If you go to my homepage and click the thumbnails and click them again the huge pic comes up. (looks a lot better). Kevin Gee doesn't allow me to attach the format they are in though otherwise i'd post 'em.

What do you guys think?

Thanks, but that's not how I ride. I put the seat down to get a fuller effect when taking the pic.

I thought the 4" tips would be too much but they have filled in pretty well I think.

From what I see the 4 inch tips look great. I was just teasin' about the seating position - I see people who sit like that every day, it makes me laugh. The seat is against the rear bench and they are all either right up on the steering wheel, or laying back against the corner.

Ya I can't ride that way. I have it folded back about as much as the passanger seat is. Just so it's comfy.

Thanks for the props, maxfanfromohio.

Love those new tips. I'm liking the interior too. I'm getting some Katzkin covers in a month or so, but just the plain back ones

Thanks bro. Are those the covers "maxedout" (henrik) is making? I was going to go with a set of those before I decided to go all out on leather.

It's all good... so you live in Orlando eh?

I went to Apopka High School and bought my 2000 SE at Bill Ray's.

If you check the pics in my profile you can barely notice that I'm still running my Florida plates too. Hehe.

Lake Mary, a small city 20 min. North of Orlando. Bill Ray is where we do our business, I'm there all the time.

Re: New pics of my car with a few new mods

Craig,

Looks really tight man. Btw, what kind of springs and shocks are you running in the front/rear? I like that drop a lot, no wheelgap, How much of a drop is that?

Needs an emblem in the front, otherwise it's looking damn near perfect.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Weasel: The whole point of the front setup is to give a clean custom look. The front grill actually has two mesh grilles in there to offset the honeycomb behind it (so you can't see it) Adding an emblem would ruin the black on black custom look IMO.

packetattack: I am running B&G Sport Springs on Stock struts. I have been for about a year and a half now. The struts are still alive, though they are noisy (creek and squeek) over any kind of road imperfection. My front end sits a bit lower then my rear, which is the opposite of my springs which give a sagging effect in the rear. I guess I got lucky.

Let's see if this hi-res pic works, club photo is gay about this kinda stuff:


I guess not....d'oh

Your car looks great, Craig. I wish I could afford performance AND show.

I like your grill. What kind of mesh is it and where did you get it?

Well my great friend, we've been over this about 10 times already. So, my favoritist org special guy, try to conjure up those memories from when I answered your Q's all those times. Maybe you and donkey can meet up and review these things.

gtr_rider, Stephenmax kevlo911, araffio, ejj: Thanks for the compliments guys.

Stephenmax: The grill is home depot "gutter guard" metal mesh. It comes in big 8" wide x 40-someodd" tall sheets, with like 8 sheets to a set for like $10 bucks. Similer to the single sheets that CustomMaxima is selling for $29 per sheet. (not bashing Greg in any way)

thebigsadler: Your interior inspired me. The swirls are indications of a deep wax and it was good meeting you at HIN.

So he should have had a manly girl? All by myself? There were like 643 people there. I have never felt so isolated. Anyways, this does not change the fact you are and your moms car is slow.
