Awesome work! People who vandalize other people's property should be hung, but I think your Riv is a lot better now, and you definitely have a closer connection with it now.

Nicely done the white looks PIMPIN. pimp You should maybe think about dropping to a cooler plug for your engine from the 605's. Most of us run Autolite 104's, and if you haven't already done so, do a pulley swap. Just some suggestions, nice whip tho.

Appreciate it because I been looking for somebody local for a while now. The mechanic i usually use does prices for the low but has been impossible to get in contact with but my neighbor does sidework and knows his shit. He's built himself a couple 500hp+ STI's and evos so can do whatever you need. What do you need done?

For rims you can't go wrong with craigslist. Mine retail for $360 a piece and got them all for $500 with tires. You should definetly look into doing the grill, took me a hour and $30 in parts and looks better then most $500 E&G grills.

I really like what you did with the grill! I never thought of changing the black to the body color.

Hey Noah, great job on the car, it looks really nice and I like the missing key holes. Was the car pretty straight before body work or was the body fixed?, either way that shop did a great job.
