So I've been busy I've disassembled the head light ans gave them a shot of body colour and clear coat. Trimmed my gauge cluster out in aluminum.. And I'm really starting to get things rolling with the Megasquirt V3 ECU hoping to have that installed soon. Heres a few pics of the car now.

Well I've been doing alot of thinking.. And have decided to go turbo.. It will be one of possibly 4 in North America going by Kia's documented on Streetkiaz.com..

Hey I got a RS tuner about a month ago. I like the car but can't stand the hood scoop on it. Its easy to tell that its fake. Wondering whats the easiest way to take it off? Or is there a way to cover up the look of it and make it look like 1 unit. PS any tips on fast and easy things you can do to it?
