Is that the current mileage of the car, because if so DAMN! you got my car beat. I'm at 94k or something like that on my 1996.

Well... I guess you could say 94k on the undercarriage... since about nothing else is original... LOL

I bought my car a year ago stock it had 64,000 miles so yes this is the actuall miles on the whole car. I think you car has low milege as well. it is kind of hard to find a Beretta with low miles.

i'm not too sure about the smog testing around here. California is a bitch though. I don't know if you have to move around all the electronics. A buddy of mine did an engine swap on his Honda CRX Del-Sol and put in a bigger and newer Honda Integra motor in, Smogged it and called it a day. Although I don't know if he switched over the electronics though.

I love how that first front body kit part looked on the car. It matched well with the rest of it. I'd also get rid of the side fender scoop things.

Much better, The kit flows when its all one kit.

I knew someone who lived in NY that had a 3.1L with a Predator kit and when the car was fully painted and done the kit looked well. Unfortunately he did not secure the sides well or properly so they began to split but when done right and all one setup the car looks good.

Time to drop it 1" :)

Thanks guys. I do plan to lower my car but first I want to get some use off the stock one. They still look and work good. Just one question. Is this the Predator or testarossa kit?
