my build of all builds!

So just as it say this is a build I have been working on for the last month or so and thought I would post up my progress to show everyone what I’m doing and also give some good reading material I always like watching a good build. So the story goes like this…. Over December I started to getting in a board state with my cars appearance and started thinking of some motivational mod that I could buy to get my juices flowing again but i couldn’t put my finger on what to get until the first week in Jan when I slid in to a dead deer at night that was hiding right around a turn on the back roads or north Carolina….. pissed and tired I went to see the damage and the first thing that came to mind was …ok so it time to get a ap2 face lift haha plus a couple choice words for the pile of deer. So I headed home about a mile away with the sweet smell of burning abs in the air from my bumper cover that was being dragged like a snow plow which was probably not far from catching on fire. So the next Moring I tore everything apart to access the damage and was relieved to see everything was straight and the headlights not cracked. The damage was as fallowed. Trashed items- bumper cover, front spoiler, air pump. Bent items-lower radiator support, air pump bracket, passenger fender. Now that I knew what the damage was I thought for 2 seconds and decided that I was going to start a pretty serious build (for me at least) that night I couldn’t sleep thinking about everything from what wheels to get to what wheels to get Hamah……the next morning I called go tuning and it all started……..
