They are dirty.
As far as the curb checks. Its not that big. If it was real bad i'd make him buy them from me. I was thinkin around $1500 + wheels. If you think thats not fair then shoot me a deal. Need to get rid of these. Have paper work also. They come with Fikse lugs(4 each wheel). 8 locks(2 each wheel).

Meant to post these up yesterday but forgot. I took a few more shots the other day. Still not the best, but hey, I got plenty of time for a good photoshoot.

Thats ok Billy. I just ordered a LM1 ressonator. Manuel has the LM connectors at his shop and we are going to fab up a single 3" system and most likely set it up pretty simliar to a mufflex single hideaway exit system. That way it will be easy for me to swap in a magnaflow race muffler when I go LT's and catless.
I appreciate you looking though man.
Charlie, thanks man. She's getting there. I notice more stuff just about every day. Might have a set of new headlights lined up, waiting for the guy to send me a few pics. I cleaned out the interior a little last night, finally got the stereo working, but now I've got to replace at least the front door speakers, lol. I've got to polish up the wheels, and get some of the crap off of them, and try to buff out quite a few light scratches in the paint. I'm just trying to do a little bit each night with it, but hey, it gives me something to do rather than sit inside in front of the damn TV. Charlie, you're not at the station on weekends anymore are ya?? I am going to try and go by Manuels next weekend to get the exhaust fabbed up.
And I gotta find out where this squeaking from the drivers side rear is coming from. I've checked the brake rotors and pads and looks good, but I still think its coming from that brake somehow. I don't know if its the e-brake needing adjustment, or if there is a clip in there thats rubbing. If I lubricate the caliper though it goes away.

Got the exhaust work done this weekend. I'm pretty surprised that the LM is not louder on this car. Its ALOT quieter than the same setup on the truck. I guess that means I need and ORY--lol. I was going to do something similar to the mufflex, but just went and did a custom 3" catback with the LM1 inline, and ran 3" out over the axle in pretty much the stock location, with a single tip straight out the back, but lifted it up into the truck cavity a little bit, with a turndown about 6" shy of the rear bumper. The tip is completely hidden from view-which is what I wanted, and I painted it black just in case.
It sounds good, but I was hoping for it to be louder. I don't know if its cause the way its run or what, I think I just need to get a cam for it and be done. Performance wise though I did notice a pretty decent seat of the pants gain, she seems to pull alot harder through the powerband, so I'm excited about that.
