Today is stereo upgrade day. Subwoofer isn't shown here but using the JL sub that is fitted to the car. Will upload some shiots once install is done.

Finally got the Forgestar F14s installed! For anyone buying these in the future, you will need spline drive lugs to make them work. I went with the McGard lugs and found them on Amazon.

Decided to finally change all the little pieces of the interior that were silver/chrome to black/red

Bits and pieces from ft86speedfactory:
- Red anodized HVAC control knobs
- Red Cusco Spin Turn E-Brake Knob
- OEM Toyota black door lever handles
- OEM Toyota black traction control buttons
- JPM Coachworks Alcantara gauge cluster hood
- JPM Coachworks Alcantara speaker trim
- JPM Coachworks Alcantara knee pads

I also plastidipped all silver interior trim pieces to either black or red instead of buying the oem black pieces and I'm very satisfied with how it all turned out.

I also plastidipped the Engine cover and both pulley covers in red to add some color to an otherwise bland engine bay

washed the hell out of it last night. got some Mothers foaming wheel cleaner and damn that ish is legit! the brown crap that was washing off of them was amazing and I've only had those wheels and tires a couple of weeks.

My first real substantial mod was today. Installed the Grimmspeed MCB and new Hawk HP Plus pads. Being my first substantial mod, it took me far longer than others. The first wheel alone took two hours and two trips to Autozone to have all the right tools. After the first one was done, the other three were much easier. The stopping power is substantially better. The only downside is that if I am stopping from less than 30 mph, it sounds like a pig farm.

But a quick jaunt down the back roads and it is totally worth any of the extra noise in the daily commute.

Next up is the perrin lock down kit, stainless steel brake lines and motul 660 fluid, a transmission, diff and engine oil change.

I'm slowly transitioning my interior silver bits as well. The small parts don't bother me as much as the large dash and radio bezel did. I'm using a 3M brushed metallic wrap to do the job.

How did you remove the trim piece on the steering wheel?

Painted some engine bay bits. Inspired by the poster on previous page. Had some left over blue I'd used to paint the centercaps so they'd match up to the wheels.

The summer heat has washed away most the color of the land and robbed the mountains of their white caps, but oh are the winding roads enjoyable.

Only downside to living where I do is that I am the only one who gets to see the car clean. Haha.
