Why do I ask for suggestions then shoot them down? I asked for suggestions other than remove this, remove that.

I already have aftermarket wheels. Why save up and spend money on MORE RIMS, when I could get something I don't have yet? I can replace wheels later. What I have now works.

As for sides, I HAVE THEM. the body shop I went to kept putting me off over and over and it pissed me off. They kept my friend's car for like 3-4 months. I went and picked my stuff up. I just bought a hood. Why suggest getting a different one when I just paid for one. Why would I do that? Why suggest things I already have? It's pretty known that I am going to do sideskirts since I've had them sitting here a long ass time.

And for flames,etc. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't have done it. It'd be off already. I don't want to take them off. It's been said 10,000 times since my time here. Why even bring it up?

And mainly, what's wrong with shooting down suggestions? I can't have 17's, 18's, and 19's, 2 different sideskirts, 8 paint colors, 3 hoods, etc. Some ideas havto get shot down. I am just hoping I can get some good ideas to work with. I'm not trying to be an asshole and be like "Fuck you, your ideas suck." Everything is good. If you like that kinda thing. I like my graphics and what I have now. Rims can wait. The car needs noticeable PROGRESS. Not spending money on things I already have.

and- u said powdercoat under the hood? What do u mean>? Have it done a different color?

cf in the scoop will look nice imo. It's set.

I have a stock tach. I don't need another one. I wanna get gauges, but I pretty much should wait until turbo to get those. Hopefully, I will get bodywork, get my interior squared off, then it's all about the motor. I don't really need a crazy show car like Keith's. I have to drive this car everyday and that wouldn't be practical for me. Plus my funds are limited b/c of school. I am moving out next year also. I need to try and save some for that. I may even sell the car so I can move. I am moving to a city where car thefts rank highestin NC. Not good. If I can't get a house w/ a garage, I am selling the car or leaving it here. (then it will be good for all show.) I am at a point where I have no idea what's gonna happen in the next year.

I'm not trying to be mean here. Just trying to explain things. I wish I could please everyone, but that isn't my goal. I please myself with this, and if I please anyone else, great. If I don't, I'm sorry you don't like it. I don't wanna sound arrogant, but at the shows I have attended, I have done fairly well. Last year was an impressive year I thought. I won some shows with a large attendance. It's mostly about cleanliness, but looks come up too. I draw crowds without tv's and crazy stuff. Imagine what I can do when I finally progress and get NEW mods. I am looking forward to it.

Again, I'm not venting on or attempting to flame anyone. Just giving my reasoning for shooting down some ideas. I hope it didn't piss anyone off. I also want to thank you guys for some of your suggestions. Even knowing what majority says will help me. I tend to steer away from that. I'm weird with suggestions. I tend to do the opposite to try and be myself and stay true to what I think is best. It helps me even if I don't use your idea. Not using your idea in a sense is using it. Thanks. I hope I am making sense here.
