Looked at my car then looked in my wallet. It isn't time yet.
Next week maybe I'll have the cash and finally order my front pipe.

When you change to 18" rims, or change your suspensions... do your insurance premiums typically go up? By a lot?

In the US we don't have to report modifications to our insurance company. Our premiums stay the same unless we have a recent claim or moving violation on our record.

That said getting insurance to pay for your mods, I the event of an accident, is usually not possible.

Did you get the painted one or the unpainted one? How much it will cost to customize paint it? Why it is better than the stock antenna besides look? Thanks a lot.

I finally changed the start up screen. Here's a video, can I get opinions if it's clear? I mean it was clear enough for my 60 year old father to change my start up screen by himself, so that lets me think it's good

It's $115 painted and $89.00 unpainted. It fits over your stock anntina base and just gives it a stream line look at least I think it does. I'll take pics once it arrives.

Installed my Grimmspeed license plate relocation kit. Really like the flexibility of this kit.

I ordered a set of WeatherTech floor mats and trunk liner. Now I'm looking at ordering a shift knob from WC Lathewerks.

Finally got around to replacing the startup screen on the head unit. Changed it to my car's name sake


No more blinding white.
