Got my Tarmac 0s installed today along with SPC LCAs. I will let things settle over the week and get an alignment done followed by proper pictures.

Machine polished glass. I have well water that leaves deposits after washing even with a quick filtered water wipe down resulting in nasty light etching if I don't stay on top of it.

Not to make you regret buying these at all, but they dust like a MOFO. Every 3 days i have to wipe down or it looks like i have silver wheels in rear and bronze in front.

Great pads tho ^_^

Haha there's a reason I have matte gunmetal wheels. Dust? No dust? I can't really tell

BTW, I'm really impressed with the initial bite these pads have on the street (once bedded in). We'll see how they do on the track this weekend.

was about to install lowering springs but realized i didn't have a deep socket 17mm for the nut on the front endlinks, then i attempted to do the rears, but didn't have an pass-thru ratchet (or impact gun) to undo the center nut on the struts. so in the end, i really didn't accomplish anything.

Did this yesterday, installed Agency Power's Catback Exhaust on my whiteout. Really Deep sound, and no rasp whatsoever. I love it. When I called, they helped me through everything and cannot thank their team enough. Excellent customer service and I highly recommend you guys check them out.

Haha, somehow all modifications equate to multiple trips to harbor freight or autozone...

Put on Toyota emblems on the car and the key and swapped out the side markers for clear ones.

Might get a new shift knob too if the shop nearby restocks today.
