I probably should not have posted that pic... now Manny will see how much he likes the body kits and put another big gaudy one on...

I like it. I'm a little biased, as I have carbon fiber and black eyelids on my car though. I say if you like it, rock it.

You really have CF on Grrrtrude?

No, he had a different hood altogether. But the black and yellow was pukalicious.

does pukalicious mean?

Hm. Interesting, never knew that one... on a race car CF makes sense at least.

Yes, but it looks sexy too on a car with the right lines and colors.

not. deffinately not a bodykit again.

Zack & i talked about that yesterday and we can safely say neither of us would ever do the bodykit thing again. well in Zack's case if something worse were to happen to his then he wouldnt do the body kit again.



anyways... some like the hood some dont. its 50/50.

I think painted, or even just painted with the scoop black, it'll look good.

If you leave it black, it's deserving of a lardass like me pooping on it after a weeklong bender.

I never got why ppl put CF on their car and then painted it But im biased as hell cause i <3 CF

Ill photoshop it hang on ill edit in a few.

edit:

ummm...




edited: heres something else to talk about.

had alot of enerygy this morning so went to work on my engine bay.

From this:



to this:

heres what i did-

Hid bad wires from the battery area.
turned down my fuel pressure sender.
removed hose from valve cover to intake & put 2 mini filters in place of it.
took battery cover off. now battery light is on. gayyy!
rerouted gas pedal cable to under intake.
thas about it for now. eventually ill paint my cold air intake black and TB black.
also going to get a nice polished overflow botte to get rid of the OEM bottle and make more room back there.
Also getting new Eyelids. cause umm yeah mine are crap.

Colormatched lidssssss! Unless you plan on rocking that black hood. If you do start throwing more black on there the silver wheels won't look that good anymore unless you get them black IMO.

I have mixed feelings about the hood, i think it takes away from the cleanliness of your car

so im in desperate need of some winter rims with winter tires as Snow might be in the forecast by the end of the month.

well just called my local junk yard & they want $35 a piece for some 14" steelies. then the tires ive picked out will cost me $300 mounted & balanced.

is $140 too much for all 4 steelies...?

I paid 200 for a brand new set at discount.

should of kept the fat 5's

Manny I'd really just check your local CL like I said. Nearly any 5x100 wheel will fit a neon.

$80 wheels and tires http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/pts/2025854086.html

$150 with new tires http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/pts/2035224624.html

Just from a simple search on indy CL. search beretta, cavalier, sunfire, neon, beetle, + wheels etc. they're all 5x100

Shoot, I gave away my 15" steelies b/c nobody would buy them...

Forgot about CL. But dude on FB posted & said he would sell me his steelies for $40 for all 4-total. Gonna seee if the deal goes trough.


Yes I know I shoulda kept the fat 5s but at the time of sale I needed the money.

That hood looks terrible on your car yellow or not. Leave it stock, it flows SO much better with your rims/lip kit. Nice job cleaning up the engine bay.
