My summer 07 92x renovation! LOTS OF PICS!
I dont like posting in member gallery cuz no one looks there and BAIC is all i care about, but move the post if you must. I have to shout out to SpeedElement and 1WRX2NV (freddie the detailer) for helping me get some stuff taken care of for the car...
Ok, well its time to reveal my project in full,sort of. It's not completely finished, im waiting on metal nibblers so i can cut out the fenders for my jdm s2k amber sidemarkers, so ill update that later. I got the car detailed today so i needed to post up right away since the car gets dusty super quick with the black wheels. So right now, its a modest list of stuff I did to the car, but its a lot of change compared to how it used to be. My goal was to make the car more classy and subtle while maintaining the sportiness of the car. Meanwhile I worked on improving the in driver amenities like sound system and compartment comfort. my photography is rusty since i havent picked up the slr since i got back from china, so when i get better and get new glass ill do a better shoot at a better location. heres what i have:

LOL, were you accelerating down the Alameda in front of Safeway a couple days ago... I think Friday afternoon...? I think... no... I definitely saw (and heard) your modded 92x while walking back to my dorm on campus.
