this vert is definitely one of my favorites, looks amazingly clean from the exhaust to the top.
Did you ever replace your top, or are you still running on the original one?

^If i were you man, i would go straight to the coilovers... the only reason why i went with the Ground Controls was that i bought my car with the adjustable kyb's. I didnt want to just throw them away and sell them for only half the price. Plus its my daily driver right now.
