So I bought this car a year ago and have been fixing it up during my free time. I thought I would post before and afters and see what people think of her...
before:

Its a 91 and so far I have replaced:
Single round crosshairs
Single round conversion
New Wheels
8mm spacers in front
10mm spacers in back
new wheels
fk suspension
complete exhaust
fender flares
chinese door handles
new mirrors, hood, fender
plus engine parts, i put on an intake and of course replaced other parts...

After:
( I tried a gunmetal color before the blue)
