1st car wash

I finally washed my car and took off the spoiled this weekend.
Here is a pic.

I must need to raise it a bit in the front as I scraped my exhaust just going over the driveway into the grass to get to the water hose.

WOW!

Thanks for the replies.

I took other pics, but I liked this one the best.

225/40/18's do not rub w/ 2 passengers.
With just me in the car I can do stupid things and they do not rub. W/ the offset of the rims I am almost rubbing at this ride height.

My car hardly produces the power to move itself, but I am working on that...
I want to tint the windows to make the thing look smooth. I put on the 97 grill today and need to take more pics.

Significant Technical Input Registered SVX
Does this mean your car is driveable now?!? You have to come down to SA.
It seems yesterday was an SVX day. Dustin, Skip, Don and myself randomly got together - having a mini-meet. It was cool because we just needed a 1996 & 1997 to have all the years.
Dustin had gotten some BBS wheels and I wanted to find the rattle noise coming from my rear deck which I figured meant it was a good time to replace the rear speakers.
Took a couple of pics as it was a nice sight: pictures

yes, we know Don's wheels are backwards - he likes them that way. lol

Arrow Akebono Proact Pads

TE1221, Get a set of Akebono ProAct pads and your wheels will be clean. Ask Svxcess he turned me on to them. I have them on my Legacy Turbo as well.

That garden hose is some stupid short 20' thing that I borrowed from my neighbor. I had to pull my car onto the grass just to use it. It was much better than the pitcher of water I was using though.

I got mine in Nov of last year (I think, might be Dec) Got the Murano wheels not to long afterwards. Had the tint done around the same time.
I have a spoiler for it, not sure if I want to put it on too.
