Looks great! Do you have a full on side shot of the car now that it has been dipped?

Tonight I stripped the interior pieces with the carbon vinyl and took it off. Tomorrow it's time for a change up. Brushed black steel vinyl. Also going to install the Beatrush Rear Differential Brace. Beatrush FTW!

Well shit. I jacked up the car, unbolted the rear diff, and started installing the Beatrush Rear Differential brace and was ready to install the new bolts to the subframe. FYI you have to drop the LCA's from the subframe to stuff a nut into the subframe. I have camber bolts at this connection point and decided to abort the install and hold off until I have more parts that will justify another $200 alignment. kinda bummed

Over the weekend I replaced my Kenwood DDX-719 with a navigation unit Kenwood DNX-570HD and added a back up camera. The back up camera is a very welcome addition to this car. Can't see crap when backing up without one of these.

A few weekends ago I also Plasti Dipped all the black items with a Matte Clear which resulted in a Satin Black finish like my wheels. Turned out really good. In the sunlight the metal flake in the factory paint still shines through.
