hahahah yeah in the middle of painting there were fuzzies all over the mirror so i used the tweezers to take them off then paint got on the tweezers so I painted it so no one would use them. lol (ended up haing to wait for the mirror to dry and sand it AGAIN becuase of the fuzzy stuff)

I was late in responding to this post about the tweezers.

Thanks! They're 17x9 all the way around.


I ordered 275/40 Nitto extreme performance tires for the rear and next week im gonna get 245/45's for the front. Then I'm most likely going to have to buy camber plates so everything can be aligned properly because I dont want to wear a new set of tires out. If anyone wants to sell a set of cc plates, let me know!

New tires came in today...

Got the rears mounted and balanced such an improvement over my old tires. They hardly lose grip, very sticky. I still need to order the fronts, lots of upcoming birthdays and holidays. So she'll just sit in the garage. Anyone know for sure if I'll need camber plates on my car? My dads old 98 didnt need them after lowering. Anyways I'm gonna try and get my bassani mufflers welded in soon. They have some dents in them at the fronts though. Does anyone know the best way to straighten them out?

Tanks man. I want to just get a new pony but I havn't convinced myself to spend $45 or whatever it is for one. haha but yeah it was a good feeling, old tires have been on there well over 2 years. They were just so hard that they never wore.

Gonna stop by a muffler shop tomorrow to get a quote to get my muffler welded in!

Had a hold up due to all my money going into my savings for south africa over the holidays and now im going to get prepared for the fabulous fords forever car show. I just started college today so buying new things isnt going to come as often but im pretty happy with my recent purchase. I wasnt planning on buying anything till I saved up my money until I came across this on craigslist...

Its an OEM cobra bumper with close to no damage to the actual bumper itself. Im going to attempt to sand and primer it to get ready for paint so then hopefully by the time I finish I'll have the money to get it painted
