I was recently in an accident smashing my front & back end (rear ended when stopped).
Alls well (though my neck is still getting serviced), & the shop in San Diego (Amattos Autobody: great work) is done restoring my front & back bumpers.
This well done work is why Im now investing & asking so many questions around here. Its a sweet ride & has plenty of power for me. Ive gone from wanting to upgrade, to upgrading what I have.
Take a look & let me know what you think.
I love clean, classy mods. Any suggestions, let me know.
These pictures were taken in my driveway this AM. Gotta love livin in San Diego!
(BTW: Im old school & like to attach from my desktop!)

Nice pics! For some mod ideas you can get some LCI tails, Orions, M5 mirrors, RPi exhaust, M tech body kit and for the interior I would say switch to a sport steering wheel. There's one on ebay right now that'll fit your car.

some douche backed into me two weeks ago at the parking lot....i actually had the body shop install the OEM M-tech bumper, and it was pretty much paid for by his insurance as the bumpers were the same price....i only had to fork out the money for the different bumper support....
