the tag is below

I mounted the tag below on the hand made rear valance. It's a one of a kind that I've got a lot of compliments on. There is only one other custom rolla here in Knoxville, TN and it was proffesionally built by CoolCars up in KY, and has been featured in Lowrider Magazine. But by time I get done with this, it won't have anything on me. So far, only 2 people have recognized what kind of car it is, most people mistake it for a prelude or an older civic, but hey, what do they know. Infact, one guy even worked at a Toyota dealership and claimed he knew everything about Toyotas, so I stumped him "Oh Yeah, It's definately a late 80's model Pralude." What an ass. But thanks for the comments.

Not to be a prick or anything but that really does make your car look like crap... The Supra tail light craze went out long ago and as most people would agree, this is exactly why. You shoul dhave left the lights stock and spent the money on some quality body work to clean up the car and give it a nice paint job.

Just my opinion so don't get butt hurt over it...

AE92 Just to let you know

Just to let you know, I've already painted this car 4 times. There has been about $20,000 invested in this car. Between the Paint, Audio, Video, Air ride, Velvet interior, and all the other "Custom" work put into this car, and the 8 trophies that I have won so far, thanks for the comments, but I think I'm going on the right track. I'm not trying to sound like a dick or anything, but have you ever met anyone to dump that kind of money into a car that isn't worth $1500? that's dedication bro. I waited 7 long years for this car, I've been to to the Masters show and I know what they are looking for, it's a show car, not a go car. But thanks for your comments.

AE92 check out the site

I just finished updating some pics of some of the changes that my rolla has gone through in the past 2 years. They can be seen @ www.slcustoms.s5.com check it out. Yes, about $20,000, that's including $3000 in my air-ride. yep, air-ride. I wouldn't recommend putting air-ride on an AE92 though, because when I ordered my struts 2 years ago, I had to custom order them and it cost my about a grand just for the struts, OUCH!

$20,000?

Its not my cup of tea but then theres no point in going further than that since everyone has given their 2 cents

But i must give you credit for all the time and money you spent into your car
Looks original
