I got there at the last minute because I was still reassembling until 8, and I hadn't cleaned the car yet, so I didn't even get to look around.

There's some neat stuff in there though!

oh, and some loser put a Protege in there.:augentreher:

Bad idea, good execution. Nice stance, clean paint job, black roof looks good. But I still don't know why you love that Protege so much.

front needs to come down... Looking good man, I love the black roof. I also think you need to hack up that front bumper a bit and add some fogs or something. Either way I am glad you are making some serious progress on your car. Keep it up man.

Yeah, I've got a ton of stuff I still want to do, including a new bumper and going lower. But now that the show is come and go, I want to take care of just paying off debts and settling into things.


As far as the show goes, I forgot my camera of all things, so I'm gonna be posting whatever other people took, and my camera phone pics once I find a USB cable ;)

Car is looking good, but since you were at a show, you should have dumped the beezy! New front will make the car looks better.

Is there lighter gravitational forces in Canada? That or most people still haven't figured out what lowering a car is. Haha...I think I'm just used to Hawaii shows and Japan shows.

Your car almost appears "Audi'ish" now. I like it..I agree on the front..maybe a lip and some fogs..plus lower all around. I'd like to see better shots of the fenders/wheels since that's where you put the most effort and what makes your car stand out.

lol, people still use the "bad roads" excuse. Funny thing is, some of the trailer queens were the worst offenders for wheel gap.

I'm pretty jealous of some of the Hondas though, they were tucking tire on 205/40-16s, I'd love to be able to go that low.

Holy crap. I had no idea you guys were doing it big in Winnipeg! Lots of K series hondas.

I noticed this too. Very few are hardcore enough to ride really low. I ride as low as I can on coilovers. My frame just barely scrapes a speed bump leaving my complex.
