I've only had the car since June 16. I've been going for that 'street fighter/battle cruiser' look.

What you see below was stock when I picked it up.

Exhaust is turned down in front of axle.

Wait a minute, aren't turn downs, cutouts, etc bad for power on our DOHC cars? Shouldn't our high revvers have full tailpipes to give it the meatiest powerband?

Nice looking car dude, got any shots of the rear? I wanna see how wide those tires look. BTW are those sumitomo's drag radials? I can't find a 315/35 street radial for the life of me.

Some ideas to make your car more stealthy/street fighter: 5% window tint, take off spoiler or run a s281 saleen wing, front grille snake (ditch that pony), and diamond cut headlights with the black housings. You'd be on your way to one bad@ss snake!!
 
Craig Mack, check these.

I'm debating wing removal again, but kinda' like the relocation look right now.

Check my next post for those STREET 315s...and they are VERY inexpensive at Tire Rack!

Holy crap dude, that last pic is sweet. The tires always look fatter in person too, so i'm sure that setup looks bad@ss.

I definately recommend a front grille snake. You can buy 'em off ebay for like $20 with the metal mounting bracket attached.

The wing looks a little better moved back. I think the S281 is the best look, wingless the second best, and oem wing the third. The only time I think wingless looks good though is when your modded like you are. Stock cobras need the wings for some flavor.

Also, some diamond clear/black housing headlights would completely change the attitude of your front end. Heres a pic of my snake with those headlights.

Also, I looked all over for those tires (tires.com, tirerack.com, whalentire.com, etc) and couldn't find them!!! Street tires you say?? That are inexpensive!? My 295/35 kumho's are almost completely worn out and I need a replacement. PLease fill me in on these wonder-tires of yours. :D

Well, ask and be enlightened!

The last tire on the page...I actually got SuperAutobac's (local large auto store), to beat that price! I got mine for $150 each, plus tax, no shipping!


Sumi Tire Prices



K the page worked.


On a side not, albeit the page not working.......$150 A PEICE!?!?!?!? View attachment 522810 I think i'm getting lightheaded....$150 for a 315/35/18 street tire....I don't believe it. Simple as that, I don't believe it.
