Lots of new mods and pics (56K -insert clever saying here indicating slowness here)

The guy I work with agreed to take pictures of my car yesterday with his Nikon D80 and it was really nice out .

Since I last got good pictures I've been real busy with the car. For the exterior I added an Iroc spoiler with hatch I found locally already painted NBM and a set of 07 gm emblems we popped off my friends aveo rental car.

Were you in PA on sunday? I think I saw a car just like that. It looks nice, but I like the evo wheels a little better.

Thanks for the compliments. Yeah I could do a wire loom on the stereo wire. I got the pedals from autoaccessorystore they are autovation pedals long since being produced because of the logos gm licensing blah blah blah. I like the rpm wheels better because they don't have the rivets and makes it cleaner looking plus the evo wheels have been on backorder for the longest. They are same otherwise. I was in bensalem on sunday for a car show. The car is lowered with eibach prokit springs and I put an inch taller tire out back and koni SA 4/3s 1le bars under there to handle the springs.

Looks like the pictures were taken at the Yardley boat ramp, Washington Crossing State Park(NJ side) by the river and the Yardley ball fields! Car looks good and should be ready for Hooters tonight!
