Couple new pics and goodies

Just installed new stoptech rotors and pads. Overall I'm pretty happy with the looks and performance of them. Onto the pics.

Latest interior mod


Back seat is getting a little full. Lol

Few more pics.


This one is for triod3signs. Your wheel will sit 1/8" further out.



Couple of photos from the beach





Sorry the pic quality isn't the best. I hope Santa will be nice to me this Christmas and drop me off a nice dslr. Hope you enjoyed them

Congrats man! Those rotors look sweet behind the wheels.

I really like your car. The only thing I would suggest is going a tad lower in the front if you can. If not, it's still hot

I was lucky to get the brakes done. My new baby has been keeping me pretty busy. I still have the rear aspec lip sitting around waiting to be installed.

I think it was 500-550 with shipping. Somewhere in there, can't remember exactly.

I personally prefer the ever-so-slight "raked" look, so I think this would set things off perfectly for me. Beautiful NBP!

I actually would like to go another 1/2" lower all around. I just got to try and get some time to do it.

I know the seats, I doubled up on the seat protectors. It's a small price to pay though. Love my kids

If you dont mind me asking, where did you get them from? Order online somewhere? 500 for all 4 is not bad at all!

The CTS is a friends and dropping it is next on the list. We had just put the wheels on and took a couple of pics. Painting them black is what I'll probobly do for now.

I ordered them from an ebay vendor called gripforce brakes. They are located in cali. If you are located closer to the east coast talk to the azine vendor Exelerate he had the same price but shipping from the west coast was cheaper for me so I went with the other company.
