rear lip aint happenin, I dont like the way it looks, not to mention I dont want to get one with exhaust cutouts I wont use. I plan on going with the srt rear w/rolled lip sometime down the road. Body stuff isnt really a priority right now, especially considering how much it costs. I wanna do some suspension stuff next, and maybe a solid racing seat or two after that.supertrick_05 wrote:Get a rear lip and it'll look TIMES better! And why is ur front higher than the rear? I thought Eibach's were supposed to level the car pretty decently?

Heres a few I snapped today. Washed the car in the afternoon, then headed out to the mountains for some driving with a few friends in the evening. Hopefully I can get some action shots next weekend, these are just at our rest stop. Thanks for looking!

Due to the financial issues that come with being a full time student and living in my own place, I havent had the ability to buy anything for the car in awhile. Ive been improvising as much as possible though. Ive been working on a mild wire-tuck under the hood, mainly to clean up the look and to make things easier to get to. Nothing major or worthy of pics, but its something to do. Thanks for the comments guys!

Everyone knows that for breasts to be "perfect" they need to be within reach.

More pics
Painted a few engine bay components over the weekend, then washed the car inside and out sunday. Took her out for a drive and snapped some pics. Found a newly paved road in the backroads and there was a hidden valley out there with like 1000 sheep chillin in it. Enjoy!
PS. For those of you who were interested, you can see the progress on the wire tuck in the engine bay pic. The throttle cable has been rerouted below the intake runners, and the vac line that ran over the CAI was moved to hang below it. Various other wires and harnesses, most of which are out of view (hence the point of this whole thing) have been relocated as well. I plan on moving some grounds around soon, but I might wait until I get the money for an aftermarket grounding kit (or a DIY one).

dont have cruise, its just the throttle cable! and im going to be designing my own carbon injector cover in the next month or so. Waiting on some cf to come in as we speak.2001DodgeNeonSe wrote:i like how you hid youe cruise control cables. I would suggest finding a fuel rail cover that will clean it up a bit too. Nice job.
refect- thank you. the animals are some sheep that we found randomly out in the country. They were just chillin by the road.
TNK- I havent done a whole lot. Every time I work on it I forget to take before pics like you asked. Maybe ill snap a pic of my gfs engine bay for reference or something. Ill keep you in the loop!
bigrobb- yeah I threw it back on. Its always going on and coming off. I cant make up my mind. sometimes I like it loud, sometimes I like the tone of the muffler (much quieter). Once I get enough money I plan on having a custom exhaust made, using an e-cutout and a flanged muffler for easy removal. Ill have it dump under the car, so the exterior stays clean,
Thanks everyone for the nice comments!!!
