So after selling my 98 GT-S sometime in July...I decided to seek out my dream car! Here's a little story of my adventure to see a GT-Four, up front and in person, for the very first time...

Dragged two buddies along for the journey. We planned for the 12:30pm sailing at the horseshoe bay terminal in BC, to get to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. Turns out the sailing was full and we waited 3 hours for the next sailing. After 1.5 hrs on the ferry we hauled a** 150km north of Nanaimo to Campbell River (keep in mind the last sailing home is 9pm). Finally arriving at the place we took a look at the car, took it for a spin and worked out the payment details.
The pro: engine is still running strong even with meerly 103,000kms
The cons: various surface rust here and there
The solution: leave the car there, get all the surface rust sanded out and get a full paintjob (at my cost)... then ship it to me

Now, I'm just waiting for it to arrive!....time for some teaser pics!

hey thats the same lip i have, had it on the car but it hits everywhere so i took it off.
but how did you managed to molded so it would sit right on the front bumber?
i never got around to make it right

I got a shop to do it so they just cut it, glued it on, and probably used bondo, sand, and paint....up close on the sides it looks a bit messy but it looks ok if you step back...sadly I cracked it right where it sits on the front bumper and probably have to bondo, sand and paint again myself lol...it was a sad sad day...

yeah that was my concern, that it would hit everywhere and eventually crack. i didnt wanted to glue it on the bumber so i can take it on and off whenever i know i wont be going to a place where there will be bumps. you mean on the sides of the fenderds or right under the fog lights?

the crack spans from right under one fog light...all the way to the other side under the other fog light....that long....
