Amp mounts are officially done. Had to add a lip and router it round for the material to flow nicely. Left side was coated in resin already, just got the right side half way laid out. Should be coating in resin soon. Show in 11 days! AHHH

Just because she let you use her glue gun, doesn't mean you should let her use your "glue" gun. Bad for friendship!

I just got out of a bad, screwed up "relationship" over the last 6 months with a girl who has a 3 year old and I accepted her as my own. She lied and lied and lied and was sleeping with her baby daddy the entire time. Needless to say, if you got a kid NOPE! Not going through that again unless its mine because I cant stand what she did. Oh ill find out if she puts out!

If it's any consolation, a little over 10 years ago, my fiancee and I of 5 years ended things and it was the exact same scenario although she didn't cheat, I accepted her 2 sons as my own, called me daddy, did homework with them...played with them...

what a painful breakup...

it passes...

I made the same rule though, no more kids. I tried with one more that was super cool and dedicated to me and had aftermarket airbags but ultimately, I couldn't get passed that feeling that it wasn't what I wanted for myself anymore.

Now, I have my first kid...and I'm in heaven. Keep on keepin on, man. You're a good man for even trying.

Well, the car is officially "DONE" with the exception of just minor touches. Doing the engine bay next, new covers(painted), 3.7 manifold and TB(powder coated) as well as my AEM V2 intake. Custom STI type diffusers all around are in progress. Side and rear almost done, front is in the works. Getting them painted NBP, and then making a lower front diffuser as a track car would have. Custom rear BBK in the works, custom interior tables in the works. Floss'd tables are not great quality and don't fit like I would like. Still a long way to go but she is show worthy for the mean time.

I did an entire front brembo swap. Knuckles, calipers, brake lines, etc. Put new lower ball joints in the knuckle, new drilled and slotted rotors front and back. New stainless steel brake lines front and back and pads of course, New hardware, powdercoated caliper and enlarged blue chrome vinyl logo on it. The paint didn't work well when powdercoating(had small bubbles in it prob from the tape). Rear im custom making a EVO caliper to fit

Because the factory brembo is better than the RL. Fitment, its OEM, and it looks better IMO on the shape

Very nice, man.
I just don't have the drive for anything that extreme. Nor the desire to spend the cash...but I can't deny that it looks very cool. Good job.
