            History of Car: Skeeter is my first car, my dad and I split the payment/work on it when I was 15 and I started driving it when I was 16 (needed work to get on the road). Since then I’ve been slowly modding my lil car for the last 3 years!

            -FMS ball joints
            -175/70/13’s on aspire steelies

            -Cheap cone filter
            -Custom 2.125” DP
            -2” glass pack

            In the works (in order of what likely comes next):
            -Odyssey PC680 battery (already have it)
            -finish 2.125” exhaust w/ 2.25” highflow cat
            -MSD Blaster 2 coil
            -Rear GR2’s

                              After last months incredible FOTM, and (hopefully) Skeeters this month- The bar has certainly been raised.
                              I DEF reckon Skeeter for FOTM.
