i am goin to buy a wing west front bumper and install that and get it painted. i am gonna get some rota rims like these  (the bronze ones)
and i am installing an intake this weekend once it arives in teh mail. so once i get the bumper/paint/intake/rims and tires done i will replace the header and install a cat back exhaust system( once mine goes) then i will redo the suspension wich will lower it a bit too. i have everything planned out i just need to get the necesary things done first. after i get it painted it will look real nice along with that new front bumper and rims.
the suspension and full exhaust system will come in a few years once it needs replaced.

Yes- don't forget a decent B-series engine is ~2300 at an appropriate supplier. If you think that's expensive, ask people how much money they spend on rice-up parts 
It looks like it would make a cool hanbrake turn machine . Just buy the cheapest tires possible, peel out, then swap front to rear.

no im not into that rice boi bs i just want it to have a nice glossy paint right now hehe. once i get that done i will redo the suspension, exhaust and mabe do a five lug and brake kit mod.
those things are down the line a bit though. i would eventually like to the b 18 or b 16 engine drop. that would be sick as hell. so this summer im lookin at gettig the bumper and paint and next spring ill redo the suspension.
here is the bumper im talking about for those not familiar with wings west
its about 300 bucks
and here is the intake i bought yesterday
AEM Short Ram Air Intake Sytems
picked that up with a discount for 119 shipped

hey thx man, i believe im gonna start some body work today.
i have it all sanded, i need to prep it with some primer, but ithink it might be to cold here today for bondo-ing. but we shall see. this car is looking real nice now, there was really hardly no rust at all. this is gonna be very easy to patch up.

u think thats expensive for an intake, my brother (actually my mom) spent close to 400 for an Injen intake.. and alot of other people do too, it looks nice, oh and if ur thinking 400 for a short ram, its a CAI (cold air intake for those who dont know) and this christmas he is getting a turbo kit or a Vortech supercharger for his 3g eclipse, that thing is slow but w/e hopefully with the mods he gets this christmas itll be quick..
