Hey whats up everyone, its riceburner, aka Adam. I'm 22, and an engineer of sorts for Comcast. Still in college, doing my thang!
I got this car last May bone stock, was in love with these cars since 05

Really great car to look at, drive, take to the occasional show... just a real treat. Havent found any 'haters' yet either so what can i say, i'm sold
I wash this car twice a week and claybar/wax it often as well. trying to keep a dd in showcar condition ain't easy though let me tell ya!

^^thanks buddy. will be better when i finally have the funds to buy those springs might be another few weeks now... sucks
but yea ive tried to consider every mod and how it will affect the cars look/performance. tried not to focus too much on one area, i don't think anythings overdone or underdone yet, minus performance mods i could use a bit moar power
