Congrats. aaaaand nice clean car.

 

nice man! i love that water fall.

 

mmmmmmmmmm, i just commented your other pic in another thread lol...but sill great looking bsp!

i miiiiight copy your tail lights. >_<

 

Great pics man and congrats on making 1000!
Btw, LOVE the color of that valvecover!

 

nice car
i want to paint the rims just like yours so all you did was sand it and paint?

 

Thanks for the compliments guys!

West-Ice, feel free to copy my tails, haha imitation is supposed to be the best compliment. As long as someone doesnt completely copy my car I'm happy to serve as inspiration for other lol :-)

Oh and oxyclean, the wheels are powder coated, not painted... I actually tried to paint them and that was the worst experience ever! Long story short: do it right the first time and have em powder coated

 

sweet ride!

 

clean ride!

 

I got a full bar last week too... but the weather has been pretty crappy lately and I'm on my winter steelies, so no photoshoot for me... congrats anyways and nice ride...

 

Hey I wanna know more on the IS300 pedal swap. That looks sweet!! Nice ride as well.

 

NICE!!!!

 

Can't really see your red bar on my mac, but nice "Rolling" shot :D

 

nice car man, Did you paint your interior pieces and engine cover on your own? It came out looking great

 

OMG I've got to post 1000 times to get a full bar!

 

Ive somewhat followed your car throughout threads, its was nice seeing the progress all at once like this...

Clean car and keep it up....

 

that's a nice tC. i want to hit a thousand too. i've got about 300 more to go. i'd better get posting.

 

When I saw the title, I definitely thought It was something related to the FullBar TV ads.

 

wow epic

 

every time i see your car in any thread....it slightly changes my mind with what i want to do to mine...its just so clean and put together...like the tC should come that way almost.
