i made the mistake of thinking i would not modd it because its well... an old ecobox but then i found that they can look pretty sweet

first i made it have dual exhaust (work in progress)

then i got a set of rims for 50 bucks and refinished them myself

and then i got some sterio stuff and center consol with cup holders and an arm rest.

(pics of rims and exhaust and stuff comming tonight)

teaser...

martin your so nice.......good job on the rims buddy! and dual exhaust is 100 percent pointless on a 4 banger and you will eventually switch back. keep it clean!

the dual exhaust is just the muffler, its not true dual, and the only reson i did it is because i needed a muffler and my friend had his old trans am muffler in his yard so we thought WTH why not. i know it dosnt add performance but it dose sound nice... for a 4cly lol

Though yes its mean, but...that's why most people think of tcc being bunch of ricers. Ghetto/diy projects are cool but I'm almost willing to bet you this thing will get a spoiler or some unpainted body kit.
OP sorry to be so blunt but come on...
And yes I always say do whatever you think is nice and not what everybody else wants...but some things you just don't do to avoid the wrong attention

looks good man, tasteful because it small and low key... question tho... is the tire all the way filled? cuz the pressure looks really low...
