Nice pics and congrats on your car! I'm going to do one of those Member's Journal doodads I think. It's awesome to see the amount of response this thread has gotten since the beginning.

You guys are amazing! I'm glad to see everyone getting their cars.

Looking pretty, now all you gotta do is rip off those hideous side markers!

I did the same thing on the first day with mine, same wheel too

But like others will say, you'll think less of it as time goes on.

Congrats on the car!

Congrats! I'm not normally a fan of those side skirts, but that looks pretty damn good.

Not to threadjack, but would you get a coating done before you were done modding the car? Like if Im planning on side skirts and maybe a hood, should I hold off until I get the items?

If your changing some of the things that would be coated (e.g. hood), I'd get the coating after your mods.

Hard to say. I did my coating before a lot of my visual mods. And I kinda wish I waiting. But at the same time if I ever went back to stock everything would be coated already lol

Picked it up yesterday and have been enjoying it all weekend! Some iPhone glamour shots:









EDIT: Was able to pull out the DSLR this morning and take some quick photos. Photo shoot to come.
