So I drove 550 round-trip miles yesterday... I accomplished a number things in doing so...

I got to see an iconic car builder in action. That iconic car builder being Akira Nakai aka Nakai San. I was able to witness and document a portion of the build. One of my Misfits https://www.instagram.com/team.misfits/ ) team mates is the owner of the now RWB Porche https://www.instagram.com/rwb_dallas/.

The second thing I was able to do was pick up some more aero parts from Greyhound... they are really hit and miss... so while I was in The Dallas area, I stopped by and picked up my package.

The third thing I was able to get done was purchase 2 4x8 sheets of 1/4" ABS. Saved money on shipping! More custom aero parts coming soon!

The fourth thing I was able to do is get an in-person look at a Charvonia Designs diffuser. I will use that design to help jumpstart my diffuser fabrication.

And finally, I was able to hang out with some of my Misfits team mates!

Very productive trip to Dallas!

Did quick review and Q&A for this part: ITS Pedal Support Bracket



I love this mod! It's one of the top 5 fav mod I've done to my car. Brake pedal feel hellova a lot better with this part installed.

Maybe this counts.

I finally ordered a SpeedFactory V1 Catback. It took 2.5 years of adding it to my cart then deleting it to finally pull the trigger.

I'm assuming this will be my 1st and only mod, until I finally pull the trigger on the Daily Rage UEL header system :|

Finally finished installing new JDM headlights. New lights "forced" me to replace the old bumper that was having severe "alignment mismatch" at the fender. Look Ma...no more bumper gap!

New bumper that fits ... new headlights that match the rest of the TRD body pieces ... all is good for a while!

Took a break from my wide body install to put this together today...

Shitty image to start off with but gets the point across...

I'll try to do a rear view soon...

My new look for 2018 and beyond...



For the most part, I'm still only debating on wing/spoiler and wheels.

After almost 3 years of being stock, I finally got around to installing an exhaust this morning! It's a Tanabe Medallion Concept-G single exit exhaust. I gotta admit, it's actually pretty quiet and not as loud as I expected. Still happy with this because now I won't sound like a fuckboi in front of cops.

No pics cuz nothing fancy but changed my coolant and swapped my JDM clear Tom's tails for USDM through warranty since they got hella water in one. Bummed they discontinued the JDM as I much prefer the amber turn signal vs. the red.

Also got a rough measurements to make some oil cooler spacers since I have a DIY kit and it sits too low blocking the bottom 3-4 rows. Will get some pics next weekend after my buddy 3D prints them for me.

Get a catted (or dual resonated) front pipe and it'll be perfect. Just don't try and get a catless header too or your ears will bleed. I wanted the extra power but that with my Berk catted front pipe is my favorite combo even over my Miltek and Tomei set-up now.
