Boston....WOW! This has really turned out well. Have you considered clearing your headlights? The amber in there is breaking up the look. How about getting rid of the amber and getting switchback bulbs. It would really top off the look!



By the way, I'm glad that Type S logo worked out well for you!

Yea, been slacking really, thats another thing i been meaning to do just haven't done it(switchbacks) lights are already cleared, I just have the amber bulb in it still. Day time it looks nice cuz its the chrome covered bulb...Still need to tint the windows as well...but its coming along slowly....

Hoping to make big moves soon next summer possibly!!

Thanx..Yea I thought same thing at first about the badge but the fact that it's Black i think does not make it pop as much if it was Red and that size, which I think would be too much I need some Dinoc stuff now

OP: Real nice look! Ever thought about moving the TypeS back on your trunk to the lower right corner (since you're otherwise debadged). Never seen it but might look sick.

If your going to have a black roof you NEED to tint your rear windshield at the least. Tinting the back 5 windows will help complete the look you are going for

Yea I thought of it and even placed it there to see how it would look, i even tried in the middle towards bottom and just wasnt feeling it...I still have the A emblem which I will be blacking out as well so i like where it's at...but if I didnt have the A there then Bottom right would def look cleaner i think

Yes that is in the plan of things to fo just haven't gotten around to it yet...Work kinda keeping me from doing the tints...I need a day off to bring to a place which I want to go to...Not alot of good tinting places here in Mass or at least around my area..I see alot of cars and they look..I'm really picky when it comes with tints, but it will eventually get it so no worries

Use vinyl. If you don't like it you can pull it off. I'm getting my WDP done hopefully this week if I have time.

alot but time and money..mostly time keeping me from getting these done....some of them off top of my head are...

-RV6 Tru Dual Exhaust with the Black Chrome tips(hoping to be on this first batch of group buy)
- CF vinyl some trim pieces in and out of vehicle
- tint the windows
- gotta do some tranny fluid changing to Redline TypeF
- unfortunately gotta waste some money on winter wheels
- Summer 2011 hoping to get the major change done....read my SIG...shhh!!!
