You know I powder coat right?... Bring a set to madness, save on shipping, one way atleast.
Im not driving a Festiva because I'm poor. I drive a Festiva because i want to!

White wheels would look awesome with your stripes!
Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

I know Charlie, but everyone (FL crew) would say "your trying to be like Charlie", or should I say....Charlie that car would look great with white stripes.
Pulled the speedo cable out and greased it up with some leftover bearing grease. Speedo works 100% now.

Maybe it is only for Charlie's then?
Gauge does a great job powder coating. It is hard not to copy some aspects on a Festiva. They are all unique but the same at the same time, which is why we all love them!

Salvaged 4 speakers, the rear speaker panels, and a rear hatch shock from the junkyard. Installed it all(still need to run speaker wires, so no tunes as of yet) Wiped down and armor-alled the dash. Fixed the engine temp guage(I knocked it during my cluster LED install) and put on some seat covers. Total Cost: $40. Seeing the interior of this little car returning to something a girl might actually ride in: Priceless.

Lol, I'm eventually painting Rosie all white, so then you won't get hassled. If I wasn't I'd definitely do stripes like yours then you could do white wheels and the double copy cat would cancel any un originality. It's late, my brain isn't working right.
Greg, how did you make that front bumper spoiler?

I agree, with so many of us tuning 1 body style if car that came in like 7 colors, we are bound to do lots of the same things. I want a stylus bumper in the worst way, but all the ones in the yard are always trashed.

Rich Norman (founder of this site) made 2 of those lips in the early 90's.He rallied festivas, as wells as tubbing them out into full tube chassis drag cars. One got trashed, and this one survived on his street car, that i bought. I'd have it duplicated, but since ernst, and junspeed have been around, theres no need to copy mine.
