Yeah I just redid my front end, I got a new bumper and headlights since the mounts broke on the old ones now I gotta source a new grille but it can wait since you cannot tell its broken from the outside (wink) Tein S tech/tokico combo in the summer (wiggle) this wagon is still in 4X4 mode -_-

Hella clean Magnum, I wish I got black housings instead of chrome housings again. And I need to paint my grille top part
 
Thanks guys. I still stand by the fact that these cars look best in near-stock form. It's amazing how a few subtle external mods added to the look of the car. Painting the upper grille trim, blacking out the headlights, adding the MP3 wind splitter, JDM taillights, etc - they all added to the look of the car without changing it over all.

I really do miss that car sometimes...
 
I cant believe you sold it. How is the Rx7 coming?
Haven't really done much in a while. I was just fixing broken crap for a while but now it seems everything is good. Will be installing new wheels/tires here shortly. Perhaps that'll warrant a picture in this thread?
 
How is the paint? It looks kinda dull in the Avatar pic. What are your plans for the car?
Yeah, the paint is faded a bit, but it looks worse in that picture than in real life - needed a wash badly, but still not too bad considering the car is 20 yrs old. I'm currently planning on turning this one into a glorified DD. Staying N/A with mostly bolt-ons and other tasteful mods. Will be getting an Rtek (ECU crack) and some light tuning - hoping for around 160-175 whp. I'm looking to get a S5 TII or FD to go all out with.
