My car: Before and After
 

Here is my 2000 ES. When i first bought her things looked fine but within a year it had been hit four times, twice in the front and twice in the rear (all 4 times the car was parked and i wasnt in it) and then the clear coat pretty much disintegrated off of the hood. So this summer ive gone to town and spent almost all my money fixing her up...tell me what you think....

we'll start with before pics (winter 05)

now some after pics: (took these today)

so far what i have done:
-repainted front bumper and hood
-clear corners
-APC next gen euro tail lights
-17x7 Motegi trak lites
-AEM short ram intake
-Sony xplod head unit
-hard wired 40GB ipod to rca inputs on head unit
-under-dash glo kit
-20% tint all around

Need to install:
-Tein S-techs
-Tokico HP blue struts (need to buy these still if anyone is selling)

and some more after pics:

A little less wheel gappage and it will be perfect.

Already voted!

I think Karen has a thing about wheel gap, she didn't like mine either, and I AM lowered...

looks much better man, I like those red tails. not an altezza fan but aftermarket red lights look good to me.

Let me know if you need any help under the hood

She should like mine then, minimum wheel gap. ;)

looks great lovin' the bronze rims;) and the taillights where'd you get the lights from?
