    I didn't say I would turn it into this...

    I said I would give it a paint job, headlights, and MAYBE an exhaust and rims.

    You’ll never be able to match the coolness factor of my car.

    My crappy Chromebook can't handle looking outside, so here is an internet picture that is basically mine. Imagine this but with some minor sun damage on the roof, trunk, and hood.

    Yes, but with illegal tint we had to scrape off the doors. We left the rear window and quarter windows for later. It also has aftermarket circle taillights with fake carbon fiber... I want to replace them.

    Ok, so it was already "tuned" by the previous owner

    Because the car has no rear wiper, that’s used as a foil to deflect air onto the rear window, in theory clearing the water or snow or dust or whatever.

    I put some custom halo fogs and headlights on my truck, as well as a new bumper because the old one was returning to the earth

    I didn't paint it though, my dad did.

    They're much better than the old sealed beams I had previously

    Not right now but I can always take a photo
    Also holy crap those headlights are expensive, as the price is for one individual headlight. That truck in the image has almost 1000 bucks worth of headlights
