So I just pulled the trigger on the Raceseng cascam plates for oem struts and a black powder coated Grimmspeed pulley cover / tool tray.

Well, that escalated quickly.... I always did want to say that! Lights removed to get ready for tinting and/or baking.

In other news, the cascam plates by Raceseng are back ordered 5-6 months. I will be receiving the pulley cover later this week hopefully, or next week at the latest.

Since the front bumper is off have you considered getting the HKS intake snorkel? Don't know if that would bump you out of your current class though. Keep up the solid work and the videos are sweet!

It is definitely on my list, I am planning on installing towards the end of my build once I am ready for an engine tune. I do not really feel there is much bang for the buck until I tune the engine and then I think it could make a much bigger impact.

In other news, the @GrimmSpeed pulley cover has arrived and will be going on in the next couple of days. My only concern about fitment is the location of the MAF sensor on the TRD intake.

Some pictures from this week. So close I can taste it. Originally, I purchased a flat black for the headlights, but I'm now thinking metallic black. The boomerang will be WRB. Tails and DRLs are getting niteshaded and the fogs got Lamin-X smoke and new, brighter LED bulbs.

also what paint did you use for the hella horns? they turned out real good

I'm not too concerned except possibly on the side due to the reflector, but the lights are quite visible through it. If I do get a fix it ticket, I'll re-do them I suppose.

For painting the horns, I used liberal amounts of GrimmSpeed's WRB rattle cans and copious amounts of clearcoat.

Well, if I get a fix it ticket, I'll fix it. But the light seems pretty clear out of it to me... :shrug:

Thanks for the heads up.
