Thanks! Yeah i got a chance to check out your car! And yeah, couldnt help but feel bad the whole night for making him wait :P

Greetings Kenny.

Defiantly get a DC2R!

[KennyBKT]

think the search for the dc2r has been held off.. for now anyways!
heres the update copied and pasted straight from jdmst build thread but i thought id give you all an update

Anyways, heres the day ive been waiting for for a LONG LONG LONG time! Ever since i got my L plates exactly two years ago today on my birthday, i knew that this day would be a very exciting day for me. Throughout the whole 2 year period waiting to get my P plates, ive managed to work countless hours at the local maccas just to get to this point. i brought her home nearly a year and 3 months ago and im safe to say im very happy at how far the car has come, especially with school and the shortage of money.
Long story short, got my Ps and i managed to finish off the exterior of the car by my birthday.
Oem ek9 front lip (thanks to my amazing girlfriend), oem ek hatch grill, and oem access rear lip



Thanks to Keith, Bernard, Nelson @ racing project for helping me out with the car and to everyone else who took the time to give feedback both positive and negative.
Cars definately not finished, but for now it'll do. TIme to focus on studying for the end of the year!
Thanks !!
