New Pics--WB from Converse Tx

Car was clean for a carshow that was cancelled.
Went to the Mall and took some pics...

PS--- I am not going to drop it... My Driveway is too steep...

















added this one just for fun...

no.. eyelids are on properly.. it would look funny if you tried to do it the other way around.

I think it's funny how people on this forum(and I'm sure I'm guilty of this too) always point out the mods they would do to someone else's car. Everyone has their own style, let each owner decide for themselves what looks good or bad to them.

I read the 3rd sentence.. and I understand why he's not doing it.. but i'm sure he would want to lower his car.. and it would definitely enhance the look of the ride. unless you can customize the driveway.. put down some boards or something to make entering the driveway a bit easier, without causing damage to the vehicle.
if that were at all possible.. I would consider that an option

JFYI the tint was on the car when i bought it... the Mazada Logo is part of the tint it is not a sticker!!! the receipt was with the paper work for the car and the original owner paid $450 for the platinum tint and custom logo...

I said I am not going to lower it because my driveway is too steep..

i'm being honest.. in the picture the tint looked like a glare.. i'm sure it looks great in person.. and I like the mazda emblem in the back..

is it like a housing community, that tells you to upkeep your house and landscaping.. or just a nice neighborhood and you just don't want your house to stand out as looking ghetto.. I can understand both scenarios.. Oh Well... that was the only option I could think of

Yeah I can't believe they cancelled the Import Showoff at SAR. I had a lunch date, otherwise I would have been there too. My STI buddies were all out there freezing their asses off.
