Ravens just look tough. :thumbsup:.. I had one but went back and traded it for a whiteout bc I didnt want to have to deal with detailing it.

Yeah, its a bit of a pain to keep clean, but I love the look. :)

Raven is such a sweet color, good wheel choice BTW!

Is your wheel set-up square or staggered?

Our setup is square...225/40/18 all around

I'm a fan of the appearance of a staggered setup, but I'd probably go with a square setup for the track

Freshly Cleaned!
 
I've been driving the Rattlesnake Pike out here in central PA lately. It's a pretty fun road!

Just got back from the car wash and snapped a few pics :)

I think smoked/clear side markers are next with some amber colored LED bulbs. :)

Absolutely love the wheels :thumbsup:

Ordered up some smoked Helix side markers with Amber LED bulbs via Vicious's groupbuy. Should be a nice touch.

I also talked with the landlord and upgraded my parking spot to a covered one! Should be much easier to keep clean now.

Got a rock chip to fix though. :( Gotta get touch-up paint from the dealer.

I think I'll be done with mods until after the winter, but I'm thinking next year should bring a header and flex-fuel kit. Anyone have suggestions of the order I should do these things in, and which header to get? I'd love to get one of the UEL headers. I'm looking for the best value for my money as far as quality and fitment go.

Thanks for the input! I'll update again when I get the markers installed :)

Got the new markers installed. Its amazing how much cleaner the car looks without those bright amber lights on the side. :)

Those corners look sweet!
