Its a future order. I had the rears ready to go and had to sell them a few months ago when I was without a job.

Nice ride! +1

I love those headlights...I want a pair but I am yet again faced with a lack of money situation. Are those gauges on the head unit real time? That's badass! lol

Personally I'd go with the VIS hood the other one has too much going on. I think I saw the VIS hood on RRM too...yeah they have it in carbon fiber though.

Keep it up buddy!

Thanks. The gauges are in real time. I love my new cd player. If I could find someone who can change the blue leds inside to red, I'd be set. I am really considering the VIS hood over everything now. I should be able to save up and buy one in the next two months if everything goes well.

Here are some new pics.


Sunroof deflector


Window vent visors




Evo 9 wing. FYI, it was a true bolt on installation. No drilling of extra holes, haven't filled in the middle hole on trunk






I also had an evo 8 stock muffler put on. Figure it will give me good flow when and if I get my headers and high flow cat.

Nice man! I'm loving that wing. It's got a nice shape to it and it doesn't look big and obnoxious (ie ricer-y lol). How does the Evo8 muffler sound?

+1 Wing

Thanks, How does it sound you say, well, it doesn't. Its probably a little more quite than the OZ stock one. As for the wing, I was very happy on the deal I got and for it to already be painted, can't beat that. I would have rather had the evo 8 style, but most of them have that clear coat problem. I hope that won't be the case here.

I gots it off ebay for $325 shipped. It had a make an offer on it, so I kicked it down from $375 to $325. I would just check around on ebay from time to time to see if there is any on there. There are some on there that are complete cf and the sides are removable for painting if you wanted to.
