Build time for the Y33

So I figured it been a year almost since I bought the car and it was time to get things going on the car so one day I drove the car to work and started working on it fixing dents and dings and now it looks like this....


Coming soon is full respray (the right way)
kit
new wheels
custom exhaust
new interior


then maybe a swap next year or build and turbo kit.


enjoy.....
