*********************************************************************************************************************
LET ME START BY SAYING THAT IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IMPORTS, SHOW CARS, OR PEOPLE WITH "ALL SHOW AND NO GO" CARS, THEN THAT'S FINE AND THAT'S YOUR PREFERENCE, BUT KEEP YOUR NEGATIVE COMMENTS TO YOURSELF. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY. I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU'D HAVE SOMETHING MORE PRODUCTIVE TO DO WITH YOUR TIME, BUT LATELY I REALIZE THAT THERE ARE A TON OF PATHETIC PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH TOO MUCH FREE TIME. IT'S MY MONEY, MY CAR, AND MY CHOICE TO DO WHAT I WANT WITH IT. NOT YOURS. HOWEVER, IF YOU DO LIKE MY CAR, OR HAVE ANY LEGITIMATE QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO LEAVE ME A MSG IN THE GUESTBOOK =)
PICS I HAD TAKEN...

Yes I know there is no spoiler on my car and I intend on keeping it that way. I think it looks cleaner w/o one. Not to mention that a spoiler serves absolutely no purpose on a FWD car since it tops out at 143. But thanks for noticing. Oh and I'm leaving my stock tails, too. I like them. In fact, I hate most altezzas. :)

No I don't plan on turboing my car, it requires too much maintenance for my daily driver and I have over 100,000 miles on it... I do have other things planned though... stay tuned.

A close-up of the marble in the paint job (w/ the old rims)... it's only in the paint on the body kit itself and the front and back bumpers... it was all an experiment, and I liked how it came out. So NO, I don't plan on painting the rest of my car like that... it's two-toned on purpose.
My Eclipse and my boyfriend John's 2003 Mitsubishi Evo VIII that he sold recently (Fall of 2007).

CUSTOM: Specializing in the making or selling of made-to-order goods.
I think people overusing the word "custom" is my new pet peeve. Please do not say that you have a custom this or a custom that ("custom rims"..."custom steering wheel") when in reality you bought it off a website or shelf at a performance parts store or out of a magazine. IT ISN'T CUSTOM unless it is an orginal design and you are the ONLY one with it!! Thanks for letting me vent. :)

INTRO:
Hey thanks for stopping by! Well here's my '99 Mitsubishi Eclipse... got it about 5 1/2 years ago (July 02) when it was bone stock. Didn't start modding it until Feb 04 though. My car was my daily driver until April 06, when I got my newest paint job. And NO, my boyfriend/dad/brother doesn't help me with it. Everything done has been my idea with my $. Don't think that I can't own/drive/mod my car just because I don't have anything hanging between my legs... lol... girls can have bad ass cars just like guys. I'll keep this page as current as I can.
If you have any questions, you can email me or ask me in my g/b. If you like my car you can tell me so, I'd love to hear any comment/suggestions. And if you don't like it then why are you here? And PLEASE READ what the pages say before you go asking or saying stupid things. Thanks for looking!
