How my car currently sits...

I guess it's better late than never to post up my build... so let's start at the beginning...

October of 2012 I started my search for an FRS around town. I emailed a few places around Houston and checked to see who had one in stock... no one did at the time. So I started emailing around and asked to be wait listed for a black 6MT. A month goes by and I get a call saying there is a whiteout available. I told them I'd have to see it and test drive it. I stopped by the dealership after work and gave it a test drive. My first impressions on the car was that it was extremely slow compared to my E36M3, but I was looking for a daily driver. It was perfect for me because it wouldn't get me in trouble. So I signed away....

I guess I was so excited to drive the car, I got to work early...

To save myself from overspending on cars, I told myself I would not mod it for 6 months... so I just took photos of it instead...
