UPDATE 9/12/2012

Been a bit busy with things but alot has happened! Taking this car to a new level and making a show car out of it! Added an Injen Intake and man that sounds amazing, and also got me a set of KW v3's!

UPDATE 10/2/2012

I recently got my car Opti-Coated by Mike and man does it make the car look shiny makes cleaning the car a breeze and looks 10x better thanks mike!

Heres a pic of the car after opti coat... should have taken a picture right after i got it done ( this is a week after not washing and the sides still look nice and shiny I just washed the car and looks like new!)

Installed KW V3 coilover system

so far im loving the kw's, handling feels much much better...feels like im more in control even though I can still feel the tail wanting to slide out a little, much easier to correct. Car definitely feels planted and gives me more confidence in cornering. I feel like there is so much more to these struts but all I need are some stickier tires! Can't wait to try these babies at the track! Ride comfort somewhat similar to stock, still need to mess around with settings but to be honest, it is only a BIT more rough but no where near unbearable or much noticeably uncomfortable ( you could always adjust it anyways) . I'd highly recommend these for those who want DD comfort with performance. ONTO THE PICS!

**UPDATE 10/31

So my car currently just hit 4k miles :/

Got my roof wrapped by precision dynamix and i love it! Also just installed a agency power catback and it sounds extremely aggressive. Will post pics up the catback sometime this week but here are some pics of the roof

UPDATE 11/18/2012**

Decided I will be running the rocket bunny kit in the next few months so stay tuned! Going to be a big project for this upcoming show season with lots of pictures and parts to come!

Some other things Im going to be running a berk technology test pipe as well as the ARK DT-S catback for my project and I want want to see how it sounds/looks/feels!

Looks great. Where did you get the vinyl for the tail lights? Thinking about doing that and really tempted to do the black headlight mod.

Killer shot

What kind of (roof) vinyl is that?

[white_knight]

Love it. Black roof looks awesome. Cars like yours always make me think twice about my choice for white.

What he said.

[Gaiakai]

Nice, planning to do the black roof as well Is your roof vinyl matte, or glossy? Looks glossy but just wanted to make sure.

Why did you do your reverse lights in red?
