Car looks really good. Those 19's looked like they were made for this car.
I bought my car exactly one year to the day after you bought yours. |

i went turbo, i think superchargers are for v8s. to each his own though. depends on your overall goals. I just like the sounds and feel of the turbo spooling up. plus i can add boost by twisting my boost controller instead of swapping out pulleys.

HDR hurts my eyes. I do like the rear diffuser/exhaust.

UPDATE - NEW LOOK FOR SEMA 2014
Decided to give the 86 a new look for this year 2014 SEMA Show. Adding on to the WALD kit is the rear over fenders. Very fortunate to work with Endless Autobody Inc. Took off the WALD body kit, sand it down, repair the fiberglass and resprayed Hot Lava Orange. Next step we took everything over to the guys at Imperial Works for the vinyl wrap. Special ordered the materials from Avery Dennison® Supreme Wrapping Film. Had the body wrapped first and kit wrapped second. The whole process from the bodywork to the wrap took roughly a little under two months. It sucked not having the car over the summer but definitely well worth it! Want to give thanks to Endless Autobody Inc & Imperial Works.
