Re: Anyone from L.I.

I think fbi makes bolt on front conversions. they look like shit in my opinion. If i saw that s10 with the escalade clip on it at a show i probably wouldnt even stop to look at it.

Re: Anyone from L.I.

def looks better on that 2nd gen but overall not feeling THAT front end swap...now ass end swaps are dope...tired of seeing corvette lights. see supra tails on cars a lot, Lexus IS300 tails a lot on some cars & trucks...I'd want to do something mild but, still worthy of the attention...I've been thinking of colorado tails flipped upside down but, ehhh. Also i'd love to actually have orange in my tails...for hazards and/or turn signals for a change lmao.

Re: Anyone from L.I.

i've never seen IS300 tails on a different car/truck. i definitely agree that i like ass end swaps over front end swaps.

you can buy the brazilian s10 tails. they have orange signals and are direct bolt in for second gens. there's a guy on here that can get them for you but i don't know who. type in brazilian tails in the search should do it.

Re: Anyone from L.I.

i stopped by this place in lindenhurst called long island customs. they seemed nice and there work is really good. i asked for a price for suicide doors, shaved handles, poppers, and the safety latch. they said 1750 total.

www.longislandcustoms.com

they had a dime there all shaved down to metal.

yeah, they hacked up our buddy's tahoe.


honestly, i don't know where to bring it on LI, but there's some badass shops in CT and PA if you don't mind the drive.


so who cares if it rains, we'll be inside hooters. the only thing stoppin me from takin my truck is cold weather. i forgot to add some air-brake line antifreeze this winter so my valves are freezing.

Just be careful in Lindenhurst, my younger brother had his 2000 Mitsu Galant done at Dynamic Design by the owner, Rick. A TOTAL NIGHTMARE.... That guy ended up moving his shop into lindenhurst.
