How's the fitment of the front bumper. Where did you get it at? Is it a knock-off? Is it fiberglass? How much was it? Nice car BTW. I have a friend with those same wheels.

It's a Black Widow Street Fighter One...supposedly authentic, but the fitment on the drivers side headlight makes me wonder. It's actually a 93 bumper, but I had the fog lights fiberglassed in. It's a 97 and that is the only year I care for in my opinion becuase I don't care for the foglights on the 93-96. That and it's virtually impossible to find a SF1 in a 97 form. They started making the SF2 for the 97 model so you don't find the SF1 for 97's . Wheels are Rota Impacts, 17's (see post of mods). I love them, but I am needing new tires soon. Either going to upgrade to TS-1's or maybe go Parada...not sure. That front bumper will look so good with an intercooler stuffed in there. He he, can you say B20-T?:fawk:

anyways, nice color. I really do like that. I need to get mine repainted too, I want to keep it black, but I'm having second thoughts. I REEEAAALLLLYYY like blue. I had a Mazda MX3 that same color and I miss it. So IF I were to repaint it a different color, it'd be either blue or white. Everytime I see a white del sol, I just love it. I think they look so nice in white.
