This is my turtle and the first vehicle that I actually had to buy only because I totaled my previous car (00 Mitsu. Eclipse). So I certainly didn't want to buy this vehicle but all things considered, I am happy with it. Well that's kind of unclear. I definitely chose to get this car.

In terms of modification, my main focus will be in audio system and low budget engine performance as well as some minor visual elements such as lighting. My other cars should give you some idea of my work if you care to look.
12-8-07 I should kind of correct the above statement as I will be doing some more moderate engine modding soon. You only live once right?

LIGHTING
I'm sure you can tell I have a fetish for lights.

In ^this^ image you can see the Silverstar cornering lights. Also, this picture was taken after I used a lens restoration product so you can see the result of that. It worked reasonably well. Those cornering lenses got really yellowy by the time I got the car.

The low beam headlights are now 30,000k HID's.
The high beam headlights are now Silverstar Ultra bulbs.
The front turn assist lights are also Silverstars.
The Driving lights on the bottom are after market with 100watt bulbs.

On the passenger side, are the my first 30,000k xenons and on the driver side are the new 10,000k.
Apparently the purple ones stick out a lot, perhaps a little too much. I got pulled over a few times with them.

This is a short video of the sequential tail lights I just put in.

INTERIOR & EXTERIOR SHOTS

two pics above are to show the rather exquisite factory paint. It's obviously really dirty but you can see how the light kind of reveals a blue effect

July trip to the Byron dragway

stewie whom i rescued from the middle of the street

These are the gauges I put in just because I got them free and I don't use anything under that door anyway. I don't smoke and there's another cig lighter.

These are the LEDs i put in to replaced the burned out bulbs. They are a little brighter than necessary but they do the job. You can find the handle and see the buttons at night.
