Car is now sold i wish her luck in her new home
Hey my name is Alex, I just turned 21 on june 16th and i am the proud owner of a 2003 eclipse GS, Canti. I have owned her for over a year now and i just can't get enough of her. The car has seen a lot over the last year, like lambo doors being put on breaking and then having them go back to stock and her first year of shows and she is still going strong. On Sept 19th she went into 480 customs to get a custom full trunk enclosure based around Guitar Hero and a 32" LCD TV as well as every piece of audio in the car being replaced with Kenwood product. The seats are also getting the two tone treatment in red and black. Now the car is out of the shop and i couldn't be happier HIN went well even if i didn't win my class, this spiderman eclipse spider showed up and stole my win but my car drew a HUGE group of people when the TV went on and people from Shell and Dsport took some pics which turned out great. For the comming year the car is basicly going to be in the shop full time i just bought a 95 civic si for a daily driver which i am turing into a nice little ride, i can't keep it stock, just not in my blood. I joined Team SCP to get a little help and i am currently a scout and event manager for them. This year is going to be crazy i have soooooo many shows this year. currently the car is getting new door panels, 7.5" sunvisor monitors, and ground control coilovers and they will be on before feb 25th since i have a big show. planned items for this year include custom engine covers (these are in the design stage now and are going to be tight) a whole lot of light outside the car, new wheels (most likely 19x8 konig hotswaps), wings west lip kit, cf hood, two more subs in the trunk and much more. keep checking back i will always updating the site

Update 07/01/07
A few huge things happened this week. first the body kit is here and i will be adding a new page soon for all the body work that is going to be done to the car. second the car is pretty much torn apart right now since we are redoing the trunk, the exterior is all torn apart as well for the new kit. And lastly i got CAR OF THE MONTH!!!!!!!! on www.club3g.com i have wanted this for SOOOOOOOOOOOO long and it makes me want to take the car even farther.
Update 04/07/07
I got the Ksports on and the ride height is set, i need to build a camber kit for the rear since i think i have at least 4 degrees of camber lol. The car look about a million times better on the ground. Now all that is left is to grab a Wings West lip kit, a cf hood and some 19"s and the outside will be pretty much done. the door panels are still being worked on i'll post pics when they are done. Check out pics of the new ride height on page 2.

update 03/10/07
i thought i would do a little update. the car has been in its new home at 480 customs for a while preping for nopi. so far i got the plasmaglow underbody kit is on, groundcontrol coilovers are on but the ride hight hasn't been set yet as the car is still up in the air as the wheel well kits are not on yet, the door handle LEDs are on, the visor monitors are in but not in the car yet, (they are sitting in the box in the car lol) the optima redtop is in, the taillights and reverse lights are out of the car in prep for tinting, the door panels are out of the car and are getting some new color, the engine covers are being made as i type. oh and i got two new wireless guitar hero controllers, i was waiting for redoctane to release these so i could put them in the car, there are going to get colormatched to the car later this week. i think that is if you are in the phoenix area come check out my car at nopi and play some guitar hero
