Default Finally Some Updates ...

Well... I've been putting a ton of hard work, blood, seat and tears into the project for awhile now. I think it is starting to pay off.

First, a quick before shot:


And now I present ...





She's a 2003 ... #1440. My '06 is going to my dad to replace his '01 Wagon.

Yay!!!!

Wow. Bumper, hood, lights, and wheels, did you have to do the fenders too to make it all fit?

At first I thought you did the swap? So you traded it then? The SVT doesnt have tint like the first shot of the car!

Rick, it was sitting up on the used lot at Mike Shad ... they had it out on the grass for a couple days, and then it was up on the pavement after that. I would rather have a different color, but I'll take what I can get.

Pat ... no.

Ashley ... nope, I didn't trade my 06 in. My dad is taking over the payments on it. This one will have the same tint my '06 had on in in a couple weeks or so.

Finally got to give it a little juice today after filling her up ... OMG I AM IN LOVE! Heh.

And the fact that you're a "narcissist" makes it even funnier that I get to quote your epic failure of reading comprehension

Great upgrade, reject

nice score! but you can't mod it much because it will end up looking very close to mine if you do (although with 100k less miles lol)

oh and if you come out of your house or from work one day and those headlights and hatchstrip are gone
