Thanks all. I'd like to lower the car a bit but given all the steep driveways around here I don't think I will. Same deal with the OEM lip, although I'm still 50/50 on the looks of that. I'm a big fan of the AP1 OEM lip though. Besides all that I need to save money for an exhaust and a tune (so much for stock! 
).
I kinda like the look of the black windshield tape, especially when the hardtop is off.
The camera used was a Nikon D70s, with a 18-70mm kit lens and a 50mm f/1.8.
The car is stock now, but I do plan to do something similar with it to broaden the powerband (and hopefully find a way to get the revs to drop between upshifts). I'm going to have to learn myself a thing or two about engine management.
It was clean when I bought it. 
Just wait until I get rid of the swirl marks though... you ain't seen nothing yet. 
Hey it's only 3! 
Insurance is going to kill me... anyway, with my busy Solo schedule I don't know when I can get out to the track. I'd really like to though. Maybe some Saturday the day before a local autox. Probably not until the car is out of warranty and I've removed the clutch delay valve this spring. Scenic Hollister isn't too far away, I'm sure I could make it out for a shoot in the not too distant future.
