      That's a really clean Festiva, Lanemeyer. Even with the bumpers the way they are, it just looks good. I'm going to go one step further and ask that you go get another set of Stylus bumpers. I think your car would win shows that way.

            Well i've got the gtx bumpers, just need to get them painted. I do love stylus bumpers though...they really suit the festiva and are a fairly easy swap.

            Mesh wheels are my favorite, although they are my least favorite to paint!

              Did a little mock up today to see if I like it...



              And for my personal enjoyment, and for anyone who didn't see the car at madness, here's a before and after of what I did with the rear interior....
              Before....


              After...

              One of my best mods I think. I never have use for rear seats and this false floor enclosure keeps things really clean looking and has plenty of storage space for my toolbox and other random junk

                      Finally got my laptop back repaired! so I will be continuing this thread, or starting my own shortly.. Since buying pimptiva (or Ironstiva) and driving 8 hours back to Pa, so far I've reconnected the license plate lights, bought parts to put a windshield washer pump and reservoir back in, had a cat welded in, replaced the weird squashy section of intake tube with a solid one since it sucked closed on me once lol, and removed the door popper/ alarm controller to replace it with my own since it is still slowly draining the battery, or at least it was the most likely culprit.. I plan to continue the direction cody had going, to make it a complete street driver again, with lots more interior mods to go with the awesome work he did. more updates to come, and I could use some wheel suggestions ASAP!! just doesnt look right with steelies haha..
