Unfortunately it doesn't appear to have the plates. May have to look into that.

Haha thanks! I love the name too. I've been using it online for as long as I can remember. "First" money pit? Did you not see the orange truck? The biggest reason I was interested in something new was because I couldn't afford to drive the truck anymore. But I'll definitely be dumping any money I have into this one too. But because I want to, not because I have to...I hope.

They are dumped after the axle?? I've seen plenty right after the mid-pipe. I didn't think there was enough room behind the axle for them due to the gas tank / spare tire. I love chrome tail pipes but the more I look at yours, its like the ultimate sleeper. You should get some blacked out headlights to complete the all black look.
I'm not a big fan of body work so we'll see. Things seem to end up worse than when I started. At least in the paint department.

I'm pretty sure they're dumped after the axle. I'll take another look tomorrow and snap a picture. I'll be looking for the blacked out headlights eventually too.

lol I'm so white, I don't know if it'd be possible to pull that off.

My friend was telling me to do that too. I might but I don't seem to hate the stock tail lights as much as everyone else.

I love it. Compared to everything else I've owned it drives awesome. It seems to grip well and corners flat. Of course my last car was a Ranger with 12" of lift so not a very good comparison. Aside from the extremely steep gear ratio it's great. It needs some 3.73s though. It's pretty quiet inside. Rides a little rough since it's lowered but not enough to bother me. Have scraped the exhaust a few times but I really don't care so no worries. Overall very nice.

WHOA! You're just mad that you can't put the top down instead of using the A/C.

I love the horizontals as well.

The exhaust is no big deal to scrape. What you need to worry about is the rear end. My car isn't lowered, but I still managed to f$ck up the rear end. The bottom of the cover got scraped away from the actual rear end causing it to leak. Thankfully, I was able to pound it back into place and stop the leak, but I know there have been people who were not so lucky and had to replace the cover completely.

That's kind of scary. It doesn't matter if you're lowered or not as far as the rear end goes though. It's tire size that's going to determine what kind of ground clearance your rear end has. And if you see something tall enough to clip your diff cover it shouldn't be in the road...or you need to get back on the road. lol
