Default FINALLY got wheels :D

They're 19" HP Evo's. Powder coated all black cause the previous owner drove them in the snow and let salt residue sit on them.

I'll get some better pictures after I put them back on. Had to take them off since it'll be snowing here in Indiana soon. Just the little bit of slush we had last night was scary on summer tires.

Yeah I thought the same thing when I first stepped back and looked at it. It looks fast, too bad it's a 12v.

Yes they're stock struts (non-sport). They're a little bit bouncy but not near as bad as you'd think. The way it handles makes you ignore it, or at least for me it does.

I work at a body shop so I'll be shaving all the door moldings and the headlight washers when I respray the car, which will be this year hopefully

Probably just the emblems on the fenders and possibly the side markers. I'm not really sure about the side markers though cause I kind of like them. And I'm keeping it yellow, might go with Imola but I'm also not sure about that. I'd love to a completely different color but as you can probably guess that would be a pain considering the whole engine bay and inside the trunk is the same color too.
