1. Got rid of the huge mufflers
 
Edit, the colors on my computer are off. My second guess was way off because of it
 
2. window visors?
 
3. Mirror turn signals

correct!, remember a few threads ago i posted that someone hit me, well, she sent 1000$ (credit card) to my friends body shop, i picked up VIP UCF's stock bumper up for 200 and got it painted for 300$ along with VIP-UCF's crossroad mirrors he sold to me, in the end my friend gave me the remainder of the balance so i scored: a freshly painted 99-01 rear bumper, painted mirrors and 500$!!!!

btw anyone else notice that the 99-01 rear lip is a little different from the 97-98?

too bad for the 500$ though, i spent it fixing my other car, plus my Q has been breaking down on me, i just changed 2 belts along with a brand new power steering pump 

today my car started acting up again, every now and then i take a sharp turn my steering gets thrown off and after when i start to go straight the car jerks and pulls to the left or right.  i talked to el presidente and he thinks it might be my tension rod bushings wearing out?? idk, but imma take it to alignment tommorow.  

i also need a new starter. i swear in the past 2 years of owning this car ive changed and fixed so much shit on it.  im at 126,000 miles right now

My friend has the same issue on his Y33 sus and hes stock. 
 
 
Thats cool that the accident benifitted you. THe car looks much cleaner overall. Some times, its best when you dont notice any changes to the car as if the car came that way. That has always been the look I have been going for.

the Y33 is so sick, so sleek and big.

i woulda took the 1000$ and saved up for a kbreak kit but her insurance told her to pay the money straight to the shop and not me

im going to be working on getting the car lower, atleast before august show, but like i said my new stylewagon project has taken away time from this car

Like I said it's either that or the tie rod ends (or even the ball joints).  The other thing i thought about was WHEN this started to happen.  Was it AFTER you changed out the power steering components?  If so, it might be a faulty control valve in the power steering.  There's several things which could cause this problem..even the rack itself or its' bushings.

yea, it started happening after the new power steering pump went in

i noticed another change. your licence plate is different. haha

thanks for putting my parts too good use...so where did you get the chrome moldings?  hi-line?

new plate, mufflers, visors, mirrors..

whats the difference in the rear lip???

i used the same chrome molding, it wasnt that damaged, the corner was cracked a little but no can even tell


for those saying i got visors, i had those on for 2 years already

and the difference in the rear lip is that the 99-01 flares out toward the back, real suttle but compare the two and youll see

[quote=AcUrALiTy;159795]yea, it started happening after the new power steering pump went in[/quote]

you replaced the pump and the hose right?


I gotta be honest I liked your old muffs much better but it still looks hot.

damn .. looking good ... the fitment is purdy

gangsta ride..nice fitment n stance...thumbsup!!
