This a pic from 1994 when it was silver



My intention is to get it this fine again but with larger 20" Rims.
The rims at this pic is Polaris 17".

I want to have sex with your car. I'll even pay the car. Those cars you have defy the definition of perfection. Fan-fricking-tastic.

Blue danger kicks ass. I'm totally in love with that color too. Can't wait to see it back up to your level of perfection! So are you trying to make it more of a looker or more of an ass kicker? (looks vs. speed)... I mean with some cash both are attainable, but most of us are poor . It's all about having fun though!

And those gills (frickin awesome by the way) are they really from a BMW Z3? Or did you fab them up yourself. I think they look a lot slicker on yellow danger with how they're molded into the body, and the wire mesh completes the look. Pretty sweet on the blue one too, how they're just like on the Z3. So are those gills metal or plastic??

Thanks,

John

that grill is the same as that found on out 80-85 non flathood cars. but you also have to have the NON flat hood from that era to make it look right.
