Was browsing youtube and found a dealership video of my Lara when it was being sold back in December. I thought it was cool and also gives you a better idea of the condition of the car when I picked it up.

Boy she came a long way after 7 months.

My 8th month progress.
On Thursday... the LED Fog lights from Vik(Dawgz) came in. Installed them on the morning of Friday. Tap them into my parking lights and did a little test with them. So, now they blink when any of my signals are on and when not they just stay on with the parking lights. Overall I'm happy with the result and definitely a one of a kind.

I know dam thing feels like its lifted... Wait for the TRD Struts from Greg. Also, what springs will work with that set-up? I want it to be a little lower in the fronts than the back.

Thanks, I get that all the time people come up to me and say what great looking car I have. I even have more comments driving this car than the `97 Eclipse GSX.

I say get the Teins. I just ordered them and they should arrive soon. According to my readings they drop 1.7" in the front and 1.4" in the back. BTW, your car looks wicked. I think I'll do something similar with my headlights.

I was going to get them, but I needed to throw cash at my ride for other things.
I actually got a pair of projectors at a stupid-good price, so I'm doing a similar retro.
I don't think I'm going to rock any LEDs in my set though.

Hey DSM,

I have to say, awesome car man!!!! Really like what you have done to it so far. Your choice on wheels is great, not overdone and sport oriented looking, that was the exact goal I had when I bought mine. You will be stoked on the TRD struts! I have them on my car and went with the TRD springs. I REALLY like this set up. I hear that Tein springs will drop it a bit more than the TRD's but I am happy with the stance my car has now.

Can't wait to see more results with your car. The next time you take pics, can you please take a standard profile pic of your car? Any plans on doing any motor work do it? I might have to do that headlight upgrade as well, turned out nice.

Actually, those rims are the TRD Rims aka TSW Revo (bought from Greg). So, I'm going for that theme for now. I took those photos as a teaser and won't be taking anymore photos till I get the whole dam kit on (who knows when that will be). I just been busy with work and never had a day off for 2 weeks straight. :morning:

As far as any performance mod. This car is a DD so I wanted to make it look at least decent. I'm not really sure... because I want to build my 2G GSX more since it is faster/boosted and 5-Speed. But, in my back of my mind I do think I should mod the Lara and gain some little ponies but, will see. If so, CPE Intake, TRD Supercharger, exhaust, etc... Also, I’m suppose to past this down to my younger brother… Now seeing where it stands now I don’t know if I can. :P
