i know people say this alot but...

this car is nothing but bad luck, i try to take as much care as i can with it


after multiple audio issues, suspension issues, thefirst mishap with the car

driving home from work tonight, hit some kind of black metal pole in the road, did not see it at all!! it took the cop and myself a good 10 minutes to find what i hit

i guess i was more worried about hitting a deer than something in the road,

metal pole came up, dented the passender side door chipped the paint, hit the rear quater panel and deneted/scratched it as well...


not even 3 weeks out of the body shop from the first time, has to go back in

hopefully, if its over 500 dollars and im pretty sure its going to be, the State will pay for it,

and my day was going so well too, just got a promotiion at my job

Sorry to hear bout your bad luck....ever thought about getting your car blessed? Seriously in Hawaiian culture or even Japanese & Chinese culture people have their cars blessed. Throw some hawaiian rock salt around your car. Japanese have amomori which is a good luck amulet that hangs inside the car. Chinese just throws firecrackers around car....Nah, just joking bout firecrackers.

Berk muffler delete. Car sounds 100 times better, and I love with the auto how it pops when you upshift under acceleration. Kind of reminds me of how the Jag F Type does the same pop on shifts as well. Also this setup saves around 20 pounds and supposedly its also an extra 10 hp to the wheels and I think there is a little extra performance now.

I'm usually a 5 or 6 spoke kind of guy, but those look great. The color suits the car very well. Nice.

wasn't today but I plastidip all my trim pieces red. I think the red door handle pieces look the best though. Ordered a jpm coachworks cluster hood too!

Although I may rip out the red plastidip for the two side kneepad pieces and plastidip it black instead. Think there's too much red accents IMO.
