Default RS style cab.

Thought I'd finally post some pics of my cab from start to today. You guys put me on the slope and I've been sliding ever since!
And YES the basket handle is next to go!

Thanks Falcondrivr!
A few things to note: The last pics were taken right before I went to a friends garage to repair the right side rocker and attach the draging drain hoses on the front. These are OEM broken tab rockers and I was expermenting with using double sided body tape to keep them from gaping. The tape worked great on the left side after my right side mistake putting the tape too far out on the body. If you look close at the pics you can see the tape. I also painted the bumper plugs since.

Yep, I'm thinking of doing this while filling the basket handle holes. Might just take the bumpers and deck lid to Memphis at the same time. But I'm wanting RS Speedlines BAD!!!

looks fantastic. I'll take your my02 wheels if you get the speedlines. I need an extra set for the track.

I was thinking of painting black and using them for track wheels as well. BTW They are Carrera III wheels. I sometimes like the MY02 better. RS wheels for the street and the CIII's for the track.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

I actually love your wheels.... just different enough from MY02s to set it off. I was telling Benoit yesterday, I had my IS300 wheels powder-coated here in LR for $50 each. Paint would be better for the track though so you could touch them up more easily.
