are those eclipse wheels in the first shot? Anyway I'm glad to see they are no more ... they always looked strange to me. Your current setup is fantastic though! I am contemplating eventually doing the bc2 sides and rear + autoexe lip thing.

yea it was a temporary thing . i ordered the rims i have now but they were on back order for like ever and my stock tires were bald so instead of spending more $$$ on new tires on my stock rims my buddy gave me his g/f's stock wheels and got me some almost new / used tires from his job for free * he worked for tire kingdom * to hold me over. believe me i didnt like using them . But it was a cheap fix to the problem at hand.

I hear you, I respect your patients waiting for those rims. I tried to get several wheels and when they were on back order I would just go onto the next choice (nervous)
 
Oh awesome thread idea! I'll play too!

07/24/07: Oldest picture I have. About 2 months after I bought her. Mods are: 35% front, 5% rear tint, catz SR foglights, JDM tails. Stock height/wheels OMGZ!

And here's the MSP starting from 2007 all the way to the present. Not much has changed in terms of looks...I don't do too much exterior modding. The mods are mostly under the hood and in suspension.

So..before I owned it....
