no way...

it's way better than the 98-98 front..

looks way more aggressive...

as for something missing....an intercooler for a fat turbo maybe?

i don't think it looks more aggresive... maybe more safisticated.. yeah.. but the ek front end with the right add ons is way more aggresive then that...


lets see some engine shots

EL front kills it...would looked better with 96-98 front with fogs...but hey its "different-ish" so kudos to you...and what matters is that you like it

i've been hunting for the jdm domani grill for ages........

cant find it.

as for the rims, the pics dont do them justice....i really like them, they are light.

as for the engine....it's as stock grocery getter as it gets..... unlike the turbo del sol in my garage...

one for play, one for daily driver....... i drive this car 6 days a week, i take the del sol out on sundays.....

Very unusual look to it. I bet it would 10x better in person. At least it's complete.

yeah..the pics dont really do it justice.....

for me, i like the EL front. i like the longer headlights than what came on my hatch.

and, it's my daily driver. i didn't want to do up anything too extreme...

and, some jackass backed into my car a few weeks ago. the hood and grill i had on there (el) were effed up, so it gave me an excuse to get it all fixed.
