This will make you cry!

Avoided a dining room table in the middle of the fast lane only to be pegged by a rock a mile later I saw it bounce off the hood and hit the fender

it all happened in slow motion too, I saw the rock bounce off the front then go right to the fender, seemed like a good 30 seconds long



Well, this is what happens when you drive them. I'm not gonna be like 80% of the big show cars out here and trailor the sucker. Just a battle wound

every fuckin day, can't afford 22's though, and this thing rides real rough as it is. I wish the wheels weren't the very first things I bought, but they were, and back then 18's were the biggest anyone did. I've been looking for a sponsorship and have found a few companies that will give me wheels at cost, but it's still out of my price range. I also wish I had bagged it, but bags weren't popular when I did my suspension and they rode like shit. One of these days I'll redo it though, wouldn't be difficult, but have other shit I need to work out first.


However, i'm really looking into something like this, just need to find out if I can find someone who makes them big enough to clear my new brakes




can someone photoshop something like that onto this picture for me. W/ a purple center

I love these though




and intro offered me a pretty good deal on a setup. I've been meaning to go over there and do some test fitting. The rear clearence is tight, but then again, I have 12" wide back there, I don't think I could fit anything taller though.

That should buff right out! J/k Man that sucks! But at least it wasn't a freaking golf ball. Last time I was driving and a damn golf ball came out of no where. I was lucky enough to have slowed down and it only hit my grill. If I would have gone just a bit faster it would have hit my hood and left a dent. But luckly it just cracked the grill which is easily replacable.

The car currently has sportlines w/ tokicos, 18" cp10's, AEM CAI, Greddy SP exhaust, wires, pulleys, etc. It use to have a nitrous kit but I took it off, i've also gone through about 10 different suspension setups and a few different sets of wheels.
