Here's a few more shots but before I got the 166 wheels- but right now it has style 101M with Blizzaks on it. It's also de-badged now. Anyway you get the idea- the best looking mod in my opinion is the CF Penta hood, while the single most enjoyable mod is the MagnaFlow. These are just GREAT cars...

And here's another shot taken today with the 101M style with winter tires... I like these wheels as much as the 166s...

Ha! That's a temporary item I made while trying to source a honeycomb grill. Can't find anything- anywhere that's just a simple screen. SO I went to the hardware store and for $2 bought a gutter screen, trimmed it and painted it satin black. It's attached rather elegantly with black twist ties!

Super kluge but it really doesn't look that bad (although the pics wash out the color- it's quite black and looks like it fits well.

I keep searching for some nice honeycomb material but haven't come up with anything.

You looking?
