don't do it Mike. You need the black to break things up. It would look REALLY bad kinda like color matched headlamp wipers...

so do the RONALS on the saff R



haven't decide what to do on that. this was just a test fit. might put the pegs on the saff and the ronals on the silver still. i had to put the meteors back on. since i upgraded the brakes the steelies no longer fit. might have some steelies for sale soon.

Soooo jealous right now. I chased a 70 year-old lady down 3 weeks ago to ask her if she wanted to sell her saffron V. Too bad the answer was "no!". That combo is my favorite 70 series. Congrats again.

P.S. For what it's worth I like the XC grill on thr VR, it ties in nicely with the mesh in the lower bumper.

thanks jay, its coming.

basically i just put a metal brush in my dewalt and was screwing around. actually worked pretty good. i bought some bits for my dremel to see what that can to in the smaller areas. i don't plan on getting it mirrored up unless i get super board. just shine it up.

i need to score a turbo and DP next. bascially state 0 is done. need a coolant hose kit(they look fine right now though)

then a new tune.

Nice, I want to get mine like mirrors, lots of time though.

Keep the 16T , and put a super 60 wheel in it. I'm getting a 3in downpipe made on april 16th at Karns Automotive Center in Groton , CT. The price is 400 bucks, and the quality is as good as CJ's....from what I see in the pictures.
