1998 EL XR6 painted :)

Last edited by skidel on June 20th, 2013, 2:00 pm, edited 5 times in total.

hey, just thought i'd post some pictures of my el xr6 I brought just a few weeks ago. Cars is a stock standard 5 speed, with pacemakers and a sports exhaust!

This is what it was when i got it-

I decided i didn't like the the el tail lights so i brought some ef lights, shown below!

Shortly after that, i installed a full leather interiour and wired up my sound system !

My next investment is a set of 18 inch ba xr8's, so if you know some for sale let me know

need to lower the front dude. VN Spec invisible caravans isn't a good look

by **skidel** » April 13th, 2012, 7:36 pm

ive had my ps for about 2 weeks now, and yeeah i have ssl's for the front but not to sure how to put them in :/

by **skidel** » April 13th, 2012, 7:38 pm

EASTERNATS!

by **TechXR** » April 13th, 2012, 7:46 pm

Looks nice and low in that last pic.

To change the front springs you need a spring compressor. And it too me a while to do that, I reckon anyone else would have and can do it in a lot less time than it took me :/

You went from this^^^

To this

And think it looks better???? fuaaarrrkk.
