Ace
Shifter . Air filter fumoto valve. Wheels/Tires are next. Turbo this summer if I can make the cash work.

I like the sound. I could handle more I think! You notice any torque loss in the low gears with that 3"? Seems like rowing gears is "tamer" with the larger exhaust.

Not yet... but what do you guys think... going blue bumper or trim in silver?
Won't be using paint. Vinyl decal. Kinda liking the strip of silver. Keep the mustache but gives the front end some nice visual space.


[ updated : special thanks to @JPxM0Dz for the photo of his car. Found it on the net from a Google search. Just needed a clean WRB front end shot ]

I'd go with one of these two

Bored on a Friday night, so I went out on a night run through some back roads. I did that Wednesday night on my night off, and end up hitting the biggest raccoon I have ever seen and took a chunk out of the front bumper, now I am waiting on the Insurance.

I almost hit a dog during my run. The thing looked at me with deer in headlight eyes before deciding it wasn't a good idea to be chillin' in the middle of the road. Good thing I hit the brakes in time otherwise roadkill.

And thank you for it!

I needed a good shot of the front end of a WRB.
This was the only decent one that came up on a Google search.
Obviously a little photoshop work to test the look.

I think he was just using that pic to photoshop some ideas because it's a good head-on shot.

Yeah it's all good. I was just suprised to see my car with a plate photo-shopped on the front.
Thought to myself, man this car looks familiar

It wouldn't be the first time. Found my last car on ebay, where an online retailer was selling CF wings using a tail shot I took of my car. I didn't even get a free wing out of the deal
