So in the last few weeks I've sold the Voodoo 13 LCA's changed it up to SPL LCA's. Got rid of the Michelin PSS and sprung on a new, wider set of Bridgestone RE-71r's and...

received and fit the Varis Arising II front bumper! Thanks jason@dsg! It fit's great and I only had to trim the headlight brackets and do a little filing and sanding to get the side markers in but really, really light modifications. It fits and clips in better than the stock bumper. Goes to paint on Tuesday, can't wait to drive the car again!

And I'm finally back on the road, YAY! It's been months since I've driven her. Latest mods were:

Varis Arising II front bumper
SPC Lower Control Arm's
Bridgestone Potenza RE-71r tires
Avest LED Side Markers
Removed Koi Orange Plasti Dip

I just got her back from the painter today and she needs a good wash and polish but looking really good for a car that is 3 years old now. Removing the last of the plasti dip in the crevices is a PITA. I'll get some good photos after I find time to finish the details. Anyway, here she is now.

Thanks @johan! Great photo! I'll use this as the current photo.

I need to finish cleaning and give her a proper polish soon and find a great spot to shoot her. At dusk the paint looks great but prior to plasti dipping the car I stripped all the wax off and now that she's naked again the paint is totally unprotected and there's quite a bit of swirl marks. Finding the time to do it is my issue.

That front makes it look like a mini viper. I also like the black wayyy more than the orange. It just looks sinister.
