Few pics of my 97

Figured I'd been lurking enough and since I've just put the lip on the car I'd share a few pictures of it after a nice bath and wax job. I have no photographic talent and the camera's kinda wonky, but otherwise comments are welcome.

I've got a set of 99 15" wheels that I use in the summer. These are just my winter wheels.

And Begi-S kit... No

Begi-Stage3 ...Yes, some time this spring.

I covered them with the Lamin-X (It may or may not have been that brand) covers a few years ago . It was pretty cheap. Something like 15 bucks.

buford SC? if so your not that far...
clean car indeed, suck about the damage, have you tried to fix it yet? i heared rumours on how to fix dents like that, but i have never tried it yet, no need yet...
supposedly if you take like dry iec and place/pour over dented area it will make it return to its original state...thats how the dent wizards do it supposedly
but anyways, if someone knows about this from experience please contribute, i only know of it as a rumour

I've emptied almost a whole car of compressed Air onto one to two of the dents and it didn't do anything but ice over. No popping or anything.
