The drivers side was repainted and the hood was blended in. Some one egged and keyed it and it did a good bit of damage. I have to get the rear bumper repaired or better yet replaced with a JDM soon. A lawn mower backed into it in the parking lot at work . The engine bay isn't clear coated like the exterior on most cars so it rarely looks the same. I wanted to repaint the engine bay a high gloss black when I took the stroker motor out but I didn't have the time. My exterior is better than it was, but she was beat to hell by the previous owner. I wash it at least once a week, usually twice and wax monthly. I'm **** about my cars appearance. Having my engine bay open at that meet made me cringe because it doesn't look up to par for me.

still looked good though. and a lot more work was done to it than i could ever do.

i was watching speed for ***** and giggles. nascar is at watkins glen this weekend and they make such a big deal out of road courses. it is really silly if you ask me. practically every other form of racing is conducted on a road course and they act like they're the groundbreakers and best things to grace a road course when they explain thing like heel toe and going 120 mph on the track.

Thanks Dan. Wanna trade? I'm starting to really like the fit and finish of the X.
I have to post a pic of the turbo install so far. I need to have the DP fabbed up and waiting on a gasket and heat wrap.

I wanted blue in the worst way but I've really become a fan of RR and white if they have black wheels.

thanks bro but ima need WW parts. but how much do you want for your rear?

are you talking about X's? Dambrosio has a used RR one with under 10k miles for sale. you could probably get it somewhere in the low 20s considering a lot of dealers are selling left over 08s for like 25-26k

I was just saying the white and red grew on me with either generation. I initially wanted a blue 8 or a black but never found one when I was looking so I settled for the red. I'd have to sell mine first and with the market being what it is I wouldn't get enough to make it worthwhile.

I have some oxycodone and relaxants left over from a bench press injury earlier this year if you're really tweaking. $25 a pill your choice. Maybe I can pay for a few mods that way. Hell, if it works to my advantage, I'll go downstairs in my weight room and pull something else right now.
