Also pull off your side moldings (free mod), would make it look alot cleaner. And put the antenna down I still get decent reception and it doesnt look like an rc car.
Further more what material did you use to make the grill. Looks great.

thanks man!! right now my moldings are painted the same color as the car. Ok the grill well i went to home depot and got construction mesh lol you get tons of it for like $8 i took off the old grill and cut out the mesh the same shape and thats it cheap and looks good everybody is always asking about it. oh yeah the intake yes it is a mugen i got it off ebay but its not real i took that sticker off and put K&N for the filter.

Nice ride pal....I like the banner...but it'd be really nice if it were a lil bit smaller....but anyhow, it's your car and to each his/her own!

You could do alot more and get alot more out of your 1.6 with that kind of money, then with just a ms motor and trans. Does that price include harnesses and comp?

Your cars in auto right.
Iff so you can only double your hp to 180 or so and still keep it safe. If you are in stick prepare for insane power with the hiboost kit.

You can always do the swap.
