The summer will be coming to a close in the PNW in about a month and a half and my car has been no where near being photogenic enough for a proper photo shoot since I got her. Probably two to three weeks from a fix. We'll just say she currently has a big ass pimple on her nose that is making a public appearance less than desirable at the moment. So angry... Hopefully the fix is near and I can let her out. FRUSTRATION!!!!

No sense in doing a full detail on the FR-S so I gave the Denali some love today. Wash, clay bar, Griots Polish #2, Griots One Step, and still need to do Griots Window Sealant.
Then figured what the hell. May as well wash the FR-S. No detail though since the bumpers need a repaint.

So wheels and tires are finally going to be installed next Friday..... I think. Been a very long process trying to finalize so far. In the interest of just simply moving on from the dealer I will be having the wheels installed without powder coating first. Thought they would have worked with me allowing a little time to get it done, all things considered, but once again the dealers have shown their true colors.
Any opinions out there about platidiping the wheels? Will be much less $$ than powdercoating and if I want to sell the wheels later I can just pull the coating. I've never seen a plastidipped wheel in person and am curious about finish quality.

That's what I thought but not sure since I've never seen the stuff. Powdercoat it is then.

Just got on board this thread. I'm excited to see it all together man. Love the work you've done so far... hard to find people who spend time to fix all the little things that make it nice, like the little rattles, or removing something that wasn't 100%. Good stuff!

Install issues.
Decided the H Techs are too mild of a drop. Switching to KW Coilovers this weekend.
