    I think it's good that you are lowering it. The paint appears to be in great condition. I like the chrome mirrors. I don't like the 3rd brake light. MORE PICS!!:D

    Future plans are...
    put my rims on (18x8 black 5 spoke)
    Tint
    Some type of buckets
    power steering
    electric fan
    and probably a little more bass
    Projector style headlights and HIDs

    thats all i have planned for now but all of you know how soon that will change


    thanks for all the compliments on the truck I used to be into my old stealth and that scene but these trucks are so simple and fun I love it

    Well I finally got to work on my truck today :)
    I installed new low profile bump stops in the front (energy suspension Ebay $10)
    I alos adjusted the rear load sensor so my e-brake light doesnt light up when i take hard turns.
    You can see my shocks I put in and I also leveled out the front now that i had a little more clearance :evil:

    and heres a picture of the rear blocks and shocks

    So I have an update and yes I have pictures for you (since I know you love them)
    First off I did an HID conversion I love it Bulbs are super bright and make the truck look way better IMO
    I used DDM tuning for the bulbs and ballasts 8000k and i got the 7x6 kit off ebay, I like them and they are real glass:waytogo: not that clear plastic crap:brickknock:(btw I forgot that my camera was set to B/W)

    turned off with a little ice :lol:

    Now some of you may of seen that I recently got some new seats well today I put them in Seats are out of a 2002 eclipse junkyard pull and all for $64
    so when i was test fitting them they seemed to lean back real far so I had to cut the old seat bracket
    I only removed the driver side bracket due to the fact it was a it was a pain in the butt and it only matters if im comfortable right?
    but i was able to save the whole piece if I ever want to go back.

    piece removed

    Sorry no pics of this but I drilled the holes put the seats in and bolted it up
    (pass side front brackets were just bent at a angle to be able to drill a hole in the brace)
    Now the seats are in
