Alcantara shift boot, ebrake boot, knee pads, and JPM gauge hood....along with the black shift surround and black TCS buttons. Love it!








Next up: Yospeed door sills and new black powdercoated center console plaque.
ZOMG I love the interior modded this way. Added to my ever growing list of mods. I dont even have the car yet...this is going to get expensive.

This color looks so when the weather is looking a bit "British"

Thanks Laika! I ordered the part and got it in a day. I was trying to figure what to do with those buttons since I'm painting all the silver in the car and these would be the last bit.

Conicelli Toyota Conshohocken is awesome... ask for Matt Berry in parts, lol. Almost all my parts come in next day. I think I paid $32 for those buttons.

I'm still collecting all the parts. I'm gonna bring in a big box and have all the parts painted at once.

Still missing about 8 pieces for paint... and missing 11 pieces before I redo stitching. Seats are getting done last...

I wanna take my time and order all the pieces. This way if I ever have to sell it, or get into an accident (hope not, knock on wood), I can swap everything over to stock (except seats).

Wooo 13,000 miles! Celebrated with some Eneos Sustina 0W20 and installing my underbody panels


*I don't normally drive in 4th gear at 29mph. Just slowing down due to taking a picture.


And just for fun, some pics from sunrise.










Next up:

-35% tint, finally giving in. I think
-Replacing my old yospeed plaque with a new black one
-Hella supertones
-Perrin CAI...maybe.


I finally figured out which wheels I'm getting and it's gonna be quite a wait

That's a good plan ya got there! I actually live right next to a really shitty toyota dealership but a good friend works in parts and gives me the discount so I don't mind. Your cars gonna look crazy when the blue is all done!

New @yospeed plaque to match my door sills! The old one was nice but this one is more along the look I'm going for in the car.

Reeeally wanted to change out my "chrome" ebrake knob but I wasn't sure if I'd be ready for the dorifto action of a spin knob. Turns out the Beatrush lets you keep the spring :O

So now I'm a poser.

The temp sensor is probably near the engine bay so it heat soaks after driving, showing a higher temp than actual.

Mod list hasn't been growing much lately. Got the hella supertones from @ (literally got them the very next day, recommended) installed finally. Well worth the money and the few minutes it takes to do the install. Also I just washed and waxed yesterday so I tossed in a bonus picture. And a better shot of the e-brake knob.

I need more mod ideas!

Apparently I never updated after wheels?!

Anyways, put on BBS RK wheels, 17x7 +48. Stock fitment, Lame but only 16 pounds a piece. They're on loan from a friend but I've gotten quite attached to them. Also got suckered into buying JDM Tom's tail lights....big fan.

Here's some acceptable fall shots.
