even still.. you can easily make a box that would fit in the corner and instead of a 6.5 you can fit a big 6x9 now! KingBaby thank you for my next project! looks awesome

Very glad I didnt paint yet.


No need to replace the under tray , I'm going full splitter next. Probably just fab one up on the OEM bumper for now. Time to mix and match my wheels for now , run 10.5 front and rear with 285's all around.

Need to tear into it, hope there isn't any more damage.

I think I'm more sore from 3.5 hours of driving each way harnessed in a fixed bucket seat than from the crash. It will be back together again soon.

5 years of tracking my car, was bound to happen.

Retarded? Well no worries, I fixed it. On the other hand, it'll take a bit more work to "fix" that Z.

Finally got some Rays / Volk decals for my LE37t's (the decals were missing when I bought these from the previous owner). Looks much, much better with these.
