    Thx for the welcome guys!, ya the look is old school..i had a good buddy who had one of these and had a hard top conv and i always bugged him to sell it to me. So now ive got my chance to make it happen. Body kit im not sure and the wheels are A.R.E 15x7.5 2 pc rims with 225/50/15 goodwrench euros..I have a set of 20s with 245/35/20 tires but i would have to go in a differnt style direction. Right now i drive it daily and get 35 mpg. I would really like to put a set of 350z wheels and a air setup..money will decide its future. pic below is the way i got it a year ago.

    The mirrors are Vitaloni Baby Turbos. Very popular in the late late 80s. Google them. :)
