Congrats

However, I think your car's color is Nassau Blue.

It's a great color.

So I have heard! That was the plan. Goin to put the shocks on when the wheels get here, and planned to lower it then. Then get it aligned! I think it's gonna look awesome with the RUFF's. We'll see!

Thanks for the comments guys. I'll be alot more excited about it when I get the shocks on it and get it aligned, that way it doesn't try to go across the highway when I hit a bump!!
