That's nice! I just got an all-black 90-91 grille! And it looks a bit off? I can't tell the difference! You should see mine...compared to mine, yours is perfect!

Thanks man. Your car is still looking clean, I like the red/clears tail-lights, i'm just not sure if I wanna make the transformation yet to them.

I've been working on cleaning up the engine bay. Took some pics.

...haha, you don't want these wheels. I'm not sure what to do with them. They are almost 3 years old now and are coroding under the clear coat and getting pretty bad on one of them. The passenger rear need air in the tire about once a month, I'm guessing its a hair-line crack. And I can't find a place that still stocks these, so I can't replace any of them.

By next summer I am going to have new rims and so I need to decide what to do with these. I'm thinking of sanding them down myself and making a project out of them.

That's a good idea! What color would you paint them?

I'd paint them the same color that they are now, but i'd add green highlights in where the lugnuts go in. Acadia green obviously. Just something subtle. But I'm not sure if these can be sanded down or not.

It might take you a long time but I'm sure it can be done! Looking good BTW!

Thanks. Next summer is going to be a big change. Now that the H22A is in and paint is done the time has come. New rims for sure, I'm going to stick with the black and chrome look for the rims, I just want them to stand out! Maybe more chrome than black instead of more black than chrome, like these: (i still have to do up some photoshop pics)

Its such a hard decision because rims make or break a car! And at the same time non-black rims look cool too.
and either a body kit or a lip kit/side skirts. Currently I'm thinking a lip kit and side skirts; it wouldn't seem right to get a body kit unless I boosted the H22A; which costs a sh*t load of $$$ so that may have to wait.

Also there has to be something I can do to make this thread better though. I guess more pics and DIY pics. I'd like to get some ratings, any thoughts?
