      The cool thing is the top of the IC is where the black part of the bumper is. It's pretty big.

        Car looks awesome and it does look like it cost you a lot of time and money. Is it not lowered? I see nothing in your sig that would suggest that but it looks lowered to me especially on that side photo. What kind of triple gauge pod are you using and how did you get it to fit ? I've heard of Acura ones fitting the Pro with a little modification.........

        while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

          The car isn't lowered, it just looks that way because of the grass. I used the triple gauge pod from the older Talon/Eclipses. All we did was cut the ends off where it wouldn't fit and screwed it in basically. If you want more details I can ask my dad exactly how he did it.

            That would be awesome. lots of people are looking to install gauge pods.

            And that car is VERY clean. sexy imho
            When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

            So his engine he goosed
            With much too much boost,
            And drove a rod through his block.

                          The steels are a nice touch. Perfect sleeper. The car looks great.
