newest pix from my xb build up+!

so i FINALLY had time to drive an hour up north to get a camera from my parents house so i took some pix of parts i have laying around + my dirty car.
its daily driven and will continue to be when all the parts are on. i dropped off my kit/window visors + other misc mods at my body shop to get painted so no pix of those. the car hasnt been washed in over a month due to my work sched. i know my car wont be vip or jdm or whatever, just trying something a little different. plus i gotta represent texas with swangers and adapters!

current mods installed are.

-HKS hypermax c coilovers
-modded oem headlights and tails
-shaved trunk
-oem bra (best $20 ever!)
-bb front emblem that i painted gold =p
- custom roadkill on front bumper

ive been putting the project off because of my move to norcal in 3 weeks. but itll all be installed within the next week or 2 bc i cant kart a lot of parts over there.. itll take up too much space in the box. half of my stuff is missing bc its at my body shop, so this will do for now.

and before anyone says it, i can go down about 4 more inches all around.. but i need to fit my wheels and kit before i dump it. ill be driving to cali 1 inch from the ground... bet that.
pix!

Jesus...those wheels!

Honestly, I think they're ugly as sin, but for some reason, I love that you're using them - your xB will be off the chain.

so i dropped off my wheels and they said itd be a 2 hour wait.
i come home. take off the stock xb wheels, install the adapters and get my car on jack stands.
i still have the previa so i was about to go and pick the wheels up so i can put them on.. and of course the previa wont start. so here i am. one car on jack stands and the other wont start. amazing. so i called a friend who lives about 30 min away to come and take me to get my wheels. such a setback.. but i should have pix today or tomorrow.

its funny how that works.
i went to eat with my parents today and my dad was like "wow, surprisingly i love it"
i think the kit and misc stuff will set it off though. looks a little bland with oem exterior.
