I keep forgetting about this page when I do my mods. Well, let me add a couple pics!

I'm joining the Puddle Light gang with this addition:



And I picked up a new hood scoop as well. It's used and has a couple rock chips so I'll have to get it repainted. But I couldn't help myself and had to install it right away. Plus my stock scoop is warped from all the heat!

Here is a little preview of my 2014 Winter Set Up. Electric Lime Green everywhere. Once its done, I'm sure everyone else on the road will expect to see a 16 year old high schooler. And I'll enjoy every moment of it

I've thought about it. I'm not sure I'm feeling up to removing the air bag to get it done though. Idk,... maybe.

Ok, this weekend I finished the winter setup. Took me a while, because I returned a lot of stuff back to the stock set up. Just for the sake of keeping miles off my performance parts. It's not the best picture, but what can you expect from an iPhone I guess.

I got some goodies in from Outmotoring today. There is also a Badge holder on the car, but it looks kinda dull without a badge on it.

I must say Grizld700, The green looks much nicer in person than it does on a computer screen. I'm thinking I may need to cover the half @$$'d silver on my wheels with some Plastidip.

Thank you! My iPhone5 was on its way out when I took those photos, so not the best representation on the screen no. I say Dip your wheels! If you don't like it. Just spray over it again, or peel it off! I love this stuff
