Noooooo keep the A-Specs! They are so dope!

The car looks good. Time to get that amber out of the headlights! Are you painting your roof or putting vinyl on it?

Whattttttt? Damn son, you're flying with this car.

I heard you were out at Sonic a few Fridays ago. I'll be there this Friday with the refinished A-Specs mounted. You should come out.

also imma give it about 500 more miles on the teins to settle properly and gonna prolly drop it another 1/2in and roll the fenders. i have some shitty spacers installed in the front right now because the rims wouldnt clear the brembos so i gotta invest into some new car specific spacers when i get some extra cash. The rims are flush in the front but ALMOST in the rear so im going to pick up spacers for all 4 corners to get the look i want. i found a guy in charlotte who will mold a CF trunk for me but it will be awhile cuz its going to cost an arm and a leg...and a few toes and fingers and my TL fund is running low after all these mods in the last month.

so far:
rv6 strut bar
aem v2 (Painted candy red to match Strut bar)
Tein ss coilovers
Tein edfc
Valentine one Hardwired
CT short shifter
3rd cat delete and aftermarket resonator
Black roof
Custom grill
Shitty temp wheel spacers
Rota 18x9.5 et38
Blox Extended black 1.5in lugs

Still to go:
New wheel spacers
New brake pads
XLR8 resonated catback
RV6 jpipe
RV6 precats
CF Hood
CF Trunk
Sarona roof spoiler (maybe)
19x9.5 et38 TE37s (prolly next summer)
AND BOOOOOOSSSSSSTTTTTTTTT
after boosting, get a shitty beater car!
