New from SoDak!

Just joined the Mitsustyle boards the other day..

So! About me:

I live in Sioux Falls, SD and am currently a full time student working on getting my diploma in Collision Repair and Refinishing Materials. Working with cars is something I've always liked, and the 2G DSM has been my dream car since before I could get a license. Now, as a 20 year old, I've owned 1) 1G ('93 Eclipse, 1.8l FTW), 2) 2G's ('96 TSi and now my '96 GST), and 1) 3G ('00 Eclipse).

No, my dad doesn't pay for my car. I'm proud to say I've worked two jobs for nearly as long as I've been able to work to cover my hobbies and enjoy my vehicles, as its one thing that I am passionate about.

I am associated with the Outlawed Customs Car Club based in Huron, SD. If anyone was at the All-Mitsu Cookout, my buddies won 1st and 2nd in the Evolution Class (Pre X). My car was also at the cookout, so if you remember it, awesome!

Hate it or love it, here are some pictures of my car:

Re: New from SoDak!

This was the most unique and clean looking 2ga I saw at the cookout. Is that lip made specifically for the 2ga? it looks very distinguishing with it and IMO, it looks very nice with it on. Great looking car.

Re: New from SoDak!

@awd-drifter: Thank you! The lip is actually made for the 2Ga's and its even an eBay special. I got it because I wanted to try something other than the typical 2Gb swap in the front. I wanted to make the smiley bumper look clean and different, and I take it I did a good job? lol thank you again.

@turbotalon1g: I'll take a looksy at your thread, I like myself some good stereo!

@Tachyon: This winter its going to go under some changes. I'll be getting a new set of wheels this weekend, and the rear will be getting the 2Gb swap and I'm pretty dead set of getting a diffuser for the rear (either get a premade one to fit, or try and throw one together myself). I'm trying to get an aggressive look to the car, without looking to aftermarket body kits and compromising the perfect lines of the car. Thanks for the compliment!
