Since I was 16- about 20 yrs.- As the oldest I always helped Dad work on the family cars.
My first real mods other than stereos were on my very first purchase in 1987: A white '84 VW GTI. (Mk. I to Euro geeks; square headlights and the long tails). I picked up the spacers, etc. to mount up a set of Porsche D90 rims to a set of sweet Pirelli P7's. The stance of the car was incredible. The outer edge of the tire and rim was flush with the edge of the flared fenders- it was a lot of tire for a car that size. Those pix are on that old stuff called film packed away somewhere.
The next modded ride came when I traded the GTI in for a new '89 Accord LXi coupe, also in white. I purchased the factory EQ and foglights, which came with black plastic "H" covers. Shortly after the purchase I mounted a set of American Racing 5-spoke rims with raised white lettered Goodyear Eagle GT's. That might sound nasty now, but they looked good on the white car. I might be able to uncover some pix of that one- if I do I'll post them.
The '89 Accord coupe was traded in for a new '92 Lude that I still drive today. I immediately started out on the quest for mods, as I still do today....
