It is amazing how different these cars look after a few cosmetic modifications! After getting mine, I changed the lenses, lowered the suspension, put on teardrops, bought new wheels/tires, added new wipers/arms, changed most of the rubber seals, replaced the front grill under the windshield, painted the rear deflectors/lense covers and replaced the bonnet badge with a silver one:

Howard - your car is like Marc's - I love the "old look" to "updated look" changes! Looks great - can't tell it's an 89!

Great looking car. Suggest H&R green sport springs for lowering. Love the clear corners and ducts. Keep up the good work. What your wife doesn't know MAY hurt you!!
