Default My tib!

I just pulled the car out of the garage for Winter Hibernation a couple of weekends ago. It still needs to be washed, waxed, and the interior has to be cleaned & vacuumed. But you get the general idea anyway. I also put the stock suspension in during the winter months, because I didnt want the car sitting on the Eibach's/KYB's for 5-6 months.

The paint is Cardinal Red, with some Pearl & Kandy mixed in. It changes colors depending on the angle you look at it. The front, sides, and rear bumper pods are all molded to the body. Everyone asks why I molded the front. Its not that big deal to me if I crack or have to pull the bumper off. I'll just cut it off, put on a new bumper, re-mold, and paint. Its just a weekend project...nothing bad at all.

Also the interior isnt just some ratte can paint job. I removed everything, sanded it down, fiberglassed it, and sprayed it with the same exterior paint. Everything (inside and out) has alot coats of clear to make it extra shiny (when washed & waxed....lol).

Also, pics dont really do the car justice. The interior may look like alot of red, but it looks 100 times better in person. I'll get better pics soon once I finish the little things and really get the car ready for show season.

Here's my Car Domain page if you want to see a list of my modifications:

Probably gonna throw the Eibachs/KYB's back in later today, and finish detailing & vacuuming the interior. Gotta get the nitrous bottle refilled too before putting all that back in as well. :P I also gotta detail the hell out of the engine still also. Soooo much left to do, its not even funny. *lol* Hoping to have all this done if not today...then definitely by next weekend.
