Topic #61889 39 posts Started by zero07
Got a couple of early gifts from my awesome wife! Let me know what you think, sorry bout the dirty car. biggrin.gif

I've had the steering wheel for a month or two and the front strut bar, modded.......gotta love neon. wink.gif

I was very pleased with my front strut bar, a little heavy but well built.

Front strut bar OBX
JDM rear strut bar
7th gen wheel
JDM Tails - Thanks Goferris























Still by far my favorite picture of my car, my wife and little girl!

neon front bar I take it? Looks really good. Now all you need are the plastic covers for the rear strut bar.

edit: maybe I shoulda read the title post before I started talking LOL. either way it looks really good. I would also invest in a 7th gen short shifter. Makes the interior look really nice.

Yes, i noticed a difference after i had installed just the rear. I drove it with just the rear for a few days before i put the front one on, then i really noticed a difference after some spirited driving. wink.gif

Thanks Batman!

Its always a work in progress! Thanks for the comments guys!

Were supposed to have a hurricane here on the south coast, my biggest worry is I still cant wash my car.

Hey Geezer tongue.gif (see the "unofficial birthday thread") - did you get the cruise control wired up ok? did it come w/ the steering wheel or is that the stock controller? (cant tell from the angles in the pics)

KAOS|THE PROGRESSION - SLOW & STEADY|PARTING OUT- it ALL must go!|
hey - I got the two different CC switches if you need to figure out the wiring I could help. LMK
