man we should do a shoot with that mitch guy when i'm in winnipeg
Yea man he does some Great work.
Was going to throw it up on here, but didn't because its more of a local forum, but you should check out toptierimports.com.
We've been doing cruises every friday night as opposed to sudnays to avoid sundays, and we just had the first official meet last week and had close to 100 cars out.
Its a way better atmosphere than Heights, similar to how it is on 6gc but with all sorts of cars.

You should join up and possibly come out to some of the meets if you're ever in the city.
Theres a couple 205's on there already, some 5th and 7th gens as well.

SHAWT SHIFTA NEEDED lol

In other news, what head unit are you using?
Short Shifter is Definately needed haha, but I don't really mind this one for now.
Just doesn't look the greatest.

Its a Pioneer DVH-P4000, its a little dated, but it does everything I need it to, so I'm still happy with it.

That looks amazing mate. Have you thought about adding skirts / spats I think it'd finish it nicely?

Some awesome pics there too you've given me a few more ideas cheers biggrin.gif
Thanks a lot.
I have thought about it, ust been waiting for a good deal to pop up on skirts (which is not easy).
Although lately i've been thinking of selling it, so I'm not sure how much more I want to invest in it.

Check out the local forum we've started, toptierimports.com
Usually have local meets every friday and the turn out is pretty big, and its a completely different atmosphere than winnipegheights.com (pretty sure you're on there as well)
That's where all of my recent photos have come from.

your car is always so clean. And the paint looks good. Is that a good buff job or have you had it resprayed?
Its actually the original paint from what I've been told.
When I bought the car four or so years ago from a dealership they said they got it from an older lady, the original owner.
A couple of the shots I just posted are edited though, so that may have something to do with it, but all the other pictures I have only have none or minor editing.

I do what i can to keep it clean as possible, regular wash/wax and clay bar, but I've never polished it or anyhting like that before. Also not winter driving it may help too.

I like how you don't have splitters and sideskirts and it looks great!

Thanks, I've actually always wanted skirts, but when they come up forsale, I don't have the money, so its pretty much a waiting game.
Prob would have went with 17, if I knew I had to wait this long for skirts laugh.gif

to put it simply its harder/more resilient against swirling/scratches/etc than waxing is. And it will last alot longer than wax. You just have to find a place that will do it for you, or just get one of the DIY kits

Interesting, may have to look into that.

Hey man, your ride is awesome, and you have done some nice and very clean mods to it, but I have to ask something pretty nooby.
I took off my license plate from the bumper and really want to put it in the mouth of the car, like you did, now that iv been ticketed for not having one in front. I looked at your pictures here and cant get a really good view of how you did it, was it just zipties? what did you attatch it to?
Thanks so much for any help!
