^Sorry^ yea I was just really excited to get the car. Just funds are low so the building will be very minor and very slow for the next couple of years.
Oh and got this in the mail last month.

I have actually been able to mod this thing faster than I ever thought possible. This is all thanks to my amazing wife (for getting me the lowering springs), Mom (for the switchbacks) and secret santa, my uncle, (for the interior LED's). I am going to be very happy with it for a while before the modding bug bites again.
Hopefully that will be a good couple of months lol.
Got the switchbacks installed today in about 5 minutes (already modded my flasher relay previously) Actually I have to give credit for the flasher relay to my buddy Glenn, Sick TLS on here

It is a seat cover for dogs so they can't scratch the leather (for when we travel which we had just done for xmas) and of course the baby seat base.
I actually painted my fog lights yellow yesterday as well. My buddy at work painted his with this stained glass yellow paint and they turned out awesome so I did mine as well. It is fully removable (or so the can says) with acetone so I figured I had nothing to lose but in the end I like the look of it way more than vinyl, AND it was free so you can't beat that. I will post pictures as soon as I can get some good ones. For some reason the phone won't pick up the fogs very well.

The light output is terrible but that isn't because of the paint. It's because I have LED bulbs in there and you couldn't even tell they were on before the paint so I am going to put the stock ones back in now that I have them yellow. But my buddies light output is pretty good with just stock bulbs. I will post pictures of the output once I swap bulbs.
Thanks UD

SO I go bored today sitting in the apartment. Went out in philly and just quickly snapped some shots. I didn't take my time on these at all and in all honesty haven't figured out how to fully use this camera yet. I will be editing these over the next couple days but here are some teasers.
Yes I did stop in the middle of the road for one of the pictures lol.

Thanks. I really liked this spot. Wish I would've paid more attention and centered it a bit better. The road I had my back to is terrifying though and I was nervous standing that close to the road to get the picture. Ive personally watched 3 accidents and driven by more than I can count on both hands with most being deaths and people being cut out of their car. Meanwhile the road is a 25 mph road. Add rain and everyone acts a fool and loses control and goes head on into the other lanes. Noone does 25. I am regularly doing 40 getting passed left and right. Its a very windy road with nothing but blind turns.

Thanks for the love guys haha. Thread title change hasn't happened yet lol
Well I FINALLY got my springs on last night. A friend finally followed through and let me use his garage for a couple of hours. I must say every single bolt came loose so easy it makes me wonder if this car ever saw rain prior to me owning it. I used a short 3/4 ratched for every single bolt under the car and never needed to use the pry bar. It was the shorter of the two crafstman wrenches. Only around 6 inches in length so I was amazed.
Here is a quick (cell phone) shot. More to come once I get some time.
