boxers: Yea I actually already have new rims, theyre motegi FF7's, 17". I might just run them for a few months tho as i really need a wider rim and tire in the back then these rims can handle, theyre polished lip with a deep black center, heres a pic:
As for being a flamethrower, only time will tell the *entire* engine, ecu, fuel ignition, bla bla bla will be 100% different then it was before, probably a lot more efficient never mind about double the power so we may see some flames but not much crazy 10ft fire ball kinda stuff.
oh and BTW thats the hottest FC *** shot ive ever seen. my car has a sweet ***, especially once those dual rbs are hanging off the back all polished up sweetly.

[quote name='Rob x-7' date='Aug 22 2005, 06:52 AM']it would be foolish to keep nice rims on a car while its getting painted
I have a set of rims I would have put on there if he only had nice ones.

rob, btw, im probably leaving here like 6:30ish to avoid traffic, sorry its a bit late but traffic with a dual axle trailer sucks, especially traffic once im actually towing the car would suck even more.
i dunno if youll get this in time so ill prolly call ya anyway.

so its on its way home, now its up to Kevin to complete the rest of the work, then it will come back to me for some final finish work on the bumper, headlight alighment, and another polishing.
loaded up, didnt get a chance to push the car out during the day to take any pics, hood is open a bit.
cut Kevin's Dad out of the pic, not sure how he would feel about his pic on the internet

im gonna go take some pics now and ill try to throw them online later tonight, i dont have it in the sunlight, my driveway is pretty shaded, but its ******* sweetness in person.
rob those moldings are being biatches, i think im gonna have to try that hair dryer thingy, in this heat they strted to pull off a little bit more. other then that it is gorgeous to stare at, which ive been doing for my whole break now lol.
oh and im going to be storing it inside my dad's business for a month until our shop/garage is finished in the backyard, so it wont be stuck outside under a cover in my backyard, thank god.
