looks hot, but you aren't that "low". I think you could do another inch.



but these don't really interest me, you know what I want to see and hear about. Send me a PM w/ some new pics of the beast or let me know how progress is comming along!!!!!

The honda logo is the JDM conversion thing. I think it looked hotter when his car wasn't that low.
