Wow nice... looks extremely clean.. nice bling bling rims! haha
Cool way of starting out putting mods on the car .. I want to do the same, but nothing extreme. I haven't decided what I plan to do in the future but for now, I want to have a nice daily driver. I say Go with struts/sways and later into struts/springs ;]
Love the black rims and headlights. I really want to get the headlights like that too.

Thanks bro I appreciate the feedback. I did like the HL's at first but now meh I'd rather have the chrome housing painted black. They are bright though contrary to what some people might say.
Duquesne, it's about 10-15mins outside downtown Pittsburgh. It is right by kennywood park if you have ever been there?. I'll be in NY this weekend but unfortunately I won't have the scoob. Binghamton if I spelled that correctly
Haha yeah it is a Bernese! She's awesome. The painting was relatively easy to do. It turned out real nice too. If you look in the photo before I put the clear coat on you can see how much more shine it had to it but the clear coat defly helped and made it look more professional if that counts?
Hey, i think i saw you in mckeesport area on my way to work. I think i might have seen your friend with the the L too. Might have to meet up some time.

Sweet! I'm going away this weekend but I will be back during the week. We will have to plan something out. Just check out the Pittsburgh Subies N'at thread we are usually in there trying to plan stuff out. What color is your L BTW?
