About a million pages back i posted a picture of the mountain of parts for the car. Nothing earth shattering, just taking my base model car and transforming it into something actually desirable...which imo is a small feat.
Black Leather interior
Black leather Corbeau seats
Stance GR+'s
17 inch XXR's
projectors w/hids
Borla exhaust
custom Sedan Skyline tails
Other stuff i can't think of right off the top of my head, mostly just fine details. The car will look pretty cool i think from the fat jelly bean with hubcaps it is now. Pretty much the car in my sig is what will be at the show.
Really the part i'm most bummed about is i don't think my body kit will be ready by CED. It has one piece that is one of a kind and they'll probably still be working on it at that point.

haha well i will probably redo the swig when i go back into summer mode just to clean up the edges nicer, this was just a test to see how it would look cuz i was bored 
but if i see a set of sportlines or h&r for sale local i may pick them up. i can't see spending money for brand new, especially on coils when i want to save up for another car...

Also can anyone with stock springs or a pro kit measure the fender lip to the ground.I wanna see how much my drop is.If you are to measure,just measure the center of the fender lip,over the center cap of your wheel/hubcap to the ground.pppppppplease
Welp if I was able to drink,Id consider driving out to Ohio for that drink.My buddy is from Akron and has family there still.
