Not much to report other then driving, which hey that's more important to enjoy the car right?

Waiting on my coilovers and bits n pieces and those look to be near end of the month now, which is no problem.

Last weekend was a great one weather wise so took a short jont to the hot springs nearby and the rocky mountains. Being only a half hour away is well,,, handy with this car the roads are alot of fun besides all the tourists.

Here are some car and nature pics to enjoy, I feel lucky living in such a beautiful area really adds to the driving experience for sure.

Lovely pictures, especially that panorama shot (wow!). I'd love to live there The more I see that Stillen spoiler the more I like it - like you said, I think it flows really well with the lines of the car.

No one for headlights for one that has a "fog light" option as you turn it like gt86/86

Toyota Tundra stalk is a drop in as well FYI.

But honestly you're better off to get Ishii Motor Industries fog kit vs the stealerships as you then will get the complete oem stuff no splicing and you get a replacement stalk as well that I'm speaking of b

Finally got my color balance sorted in my front end for lights!

Changes to some HID Powerhouse LEDs for fogs, also some Phillips Diamond Halogen for DRL/HighBeams and some Euro Ultra Slims for the HIDs in 5ks. A nice balance now IMO. Was considering LED for DRLs but being I live so far into the toolies having true HighBeams is very practical.
