First pics in 2010 + new wheels

It's time to take her out of storage.

She is still dirty and needs some detailing work, but can't wait to share some picz with you.

Nice ride bro, loving the grill! I just put my Mugen grill in at the paint shop and the center plastic bar is removed to give it that clean look.

Nice ride man, I like the different look with the front grille.

You're wrong about the most fucked up roads. Edmonton/St. Albert is worse, seriously we have almost half a million pot holes that need to be fixed every spring. It's insane. I'm actually sitting a tiny bit higher than you from the looks of it and I wouldn't dare go any lower even if it would look fantastic.

Funnest part, is that they were like that, just played with curves, some highlights and more black.

Thanks buddy! nope... you have to fix them once a year, here in qc, they doing it all the year long, even in winter.
+ condition of roads itself, they are all bumpy, etc... i'm driving there a lot, and i'd say, ON roads are much better.

I'm still thinking, it's not painted yet, maybe that's why, and as i said, i'm planning to add small type-s there, instead of A.

The roads here in Alberta are quite terrible, especially in comparison to Ontario and BC roads. They're so much smoother. Edmonton and St. Albert roads are bumpy, have dips, have tracks from wear of heavier vehicles in places and there's a lot of road construction. There's also lots of parking lot driveways that I frequent which have crappy inclines that are not friendly to lowered cars.
