Chris's EJ6 build-up thread!

[NFR_AP2]

To be honest i just now realized these kind of threads had their own little section, so i figured why not make my own build-up thread since i pretty much work for my car and order something new every week lol. ill give you guys a short story about my hatchie, bought it january 25th, 2008 as a shell from philly. the car needed some TLC but that was quickly taken care of. since ive had it, its been through 3 different swaps and 4 different trannys. gone through a couple sets of wheels, and so many other things. i put every piece of this car together myself, and damn proud of it.

one day i hope to have it in a magazine or something, but i think for only being 20 im off to a good start and younger than most of the guys who have baller cars haha

well i actually have the cf hood on right now. but every now and then i switch back to the oem hood with oem hood bra, which i kinda like better, but at the same time i love how the cf looks..ah idk man tough decision for me. spoon mirrors will be coming very soon...well hopefully within the next month or so..
