Its cool if your stock we dont judge. Obviously your navy whats your rate? Theres a bunch of us here that are in right now. I have popcharger if you would like to start to become unstock! I can do headlights and other things too and i may have some clear corners laying around also. You may not notice the little things at first but they add up quick. Welcome to the site.

I was at work till almost 8. got today off though

Cant wait for spring guys, once i get back from deployment going to drop a few grand in the car. Going to keep ol clifford

but kind of want to paint it a different color now, i dont like seeing other red ones, either exterior work (hood, trunk..maybe fenders) or coils, intake, ecu, tune... pretty much looking to spend 3-4 grand... i know a guy back home ( use to date his daughter, we still talk ) who owns a body shop said he'll give me a HELL of a good price on a paint job... so looking for some input, this wont be done till may-june ish ( i have to ship the car home if i go that route)

Sorry i missed out yesterday, im sure it was a fun time

I'm an ET2 on the Wasp...:-/ the popcharger i've heard was a good start and i'm looking at doing a few things here and there if money allows. Sunday i replaced my old lights with new Xenons from thenismoshop, that was a fun event in the cold.

Crappy story on why i had to replace them. The first thing i thought would be cool to do and easy was to put halos in... well bad idea when i relized i had to do it myself. tired doing one and it ended up being a big fail. well i guess the seal around the light didn't completely seal and water got in and fried the HID ballast... so i had to replace that. well instead of dishing out 60-100 bucks for a new ballast each time i just forked out the money to get new lights. :-/. didn't want to at all but it looks nice now.

i was actually thinking of getting a front lip next. just trying to find the right price.

+ I had my eye on that Prowler Purple for the longest. Tired of DG. Talked to the owner of John's Restorations a few months and got a pretty decent quote for the job. Either gonna go with the Prowler Purple, a shade darker than DG (the grey from the 40th anniversary Z), or that Mitsubishi orange ("rotor glow").
