    I also plan on painting around my fog lights gloss black when I find a new bumper.

    And I don't know of a color that would go well with purple other than black. Maybe a charcoal but even then it's just going to make the purple that much more purple. If I did black at least it would tie in with other things.
    With other black accents, I think a black manta stripe would really complete the look. doit

      • I decided that I'm going to keep it without the manta for now. It's easiest enough to do it afterwards.

        I'll be heading to MIS tomorrow.

        How do the stock ss intakes flow compare to the K&N cai?

        Where can I get a clean oem front bumper?

        • I think the K&N flows better. Not worth the money to get a SS.

            $300 it's yours.
            An extra $50 to paint it. ( can't promise a perfect color match since I'm not blending )
            An extra $15 for a tinted brake light.

                  I was just out there. Dammit lol. Not sure when ill be back though. Let me get some pics for you. Its currently black with a key scratch in it that the previous owner tried to wetsand out. I can prime it for an extra cost.


                  This weekend i went to mis and did some laps. My buddy got some cool footage from his go pro. It takes a lap or 2 for him to get next to me.

                    • Plasti dipped the wheels today. I thought i was set on doing a set of my 10 spokes gloss black but after seeing a buddys car with matte powdercoat black 10 spokes on his 98 I had to see what they would look like.





                      I finally had 30 minutes of free time. Go figure it was after working all day on a sunday lol.

                      What I started with after I cleaned all of the grim off.


                      Got it prepped for the most part. Im going to prime the areas I feathered out the chips. I don't want it to shrink and look like crap.




                      This is what I started with on the outside.



                      Wanted to get that old nasty (probably rattle can) primer off of it.



                      Fixed a couple of pics and got some primer on it. Still need to block the whole hood and make sure there aren't any flaws in it. Then ill prime and block it again. I want this thing flat and smooth





                      How does the grill come out on the hood? Are they easily available? Id rather paint it off and snap it back on then try taping it up.

                          Id say you can have it. But it would come with a hefty price


                          Also, I have came to the conclusion that I will be lowering the car more. I think the cheapest way to do it is cut the stock springs or cut a little bit off these bmrs. I just don't want it to ride like crap. I haven't done the header hose mod in the rear yet so that'll be first thing. Still need to do something to the front.

                          • I think the current ride height would look good if the wheels stuck out just a smidge more. I have the same springs in my car but they seem to fit my wheels pretty good.

                              When I have the 11s on it could definitely use a spacer.
