@Quyen - Which wax/sealant are you using at the moment? Are you planning to use a different one for the winter time? I always like to put multiple layers to give it a bit of extra protection, although for our winter nothing has lasted the entire time yet.

@Vince - Im actually not really using anything other than the wash an wax from maguirs. I didnt want to do any waxing or use clay bar until i got a better an understanding of how to use it. Plus i havent had alot of time to spend on my car.
@Jordan - Nice work, it turned out really well. Now i know who to call to paint some interior trim for me :P.

O rly? I'm hoping it's an IS-F
I saw there was a black one just posted on 780. Paint looks quite scratched from the trunk pics though 
I hear you on school. It's a big pita.

Finally had the chance to wax and claybar my car. ITS SO SHINY!!!!!! No joke, hahaha. Although i think i need to repaint either some panels on my car or the entire care because i found like so many scratches and morons leaving their paint on my doors. Anyhow i will post pics if i can remember how to get photos off my bbm :P.

Haha wheels stay with the car. I was about to pick up an is350 awd, but some other dick head put a deposit down on it 10 mins before me.
Guess its a sign that I should wait out and buy an IS-F like I initially planned.

@Quyen - Nice! I highly doubt a repaint is required unless you have some serious damage or willing to spend a couple grand. A paint correction removes the majority of all the swirls, removes oxidation, improves clarity and helps the paint really pop.
Finally got around to installing my roof spoiler. Wrapped it in CF of course

@Aaron - Dude already? I'm holding out until we get hit with a real snow storm. I already had my car raised back up (huge thanks to Ricky), I don't want to slap on the stock wheels just yet. Throwing the towel into winter blows.
@Jordan - Looks good! Blends nicely with the rest of the interior. What color was the headliner before?

^Some DIY ftw!
I want to make my lower grilles like I did my front grille, but it will require so much work. It means I'll be putting some bondo onto the bumper and filling in a few gaps. It will look a bit funny too if I just use touch up paint. The cost of getting a bumper repainted is nuts though. Decisions decisions.

I don't really think your bumper really needs a lip, looks good the way it is or maybe do something like this

That Mugen bumper is expensive as sheit, i checked an the wanted like close to $2500 just for the fronts. Guess i will add a little carbon vinyl on the bottom section until i can find the cash for it, haha. Totally worth it cause i dont think there is anyone with this kit yet, correct me if im wrong.
Looks like i will need to switch to my winters soon, maybe
. "They say wet snow" Just hope its not a full blown blizzard, haha.

Hopefully it turns out good man!
Vince, were you driving on Ellserslie road around 6pm today? I coulda sworn I saw you when I left work lol.
I got my TWM short shift adapter and installed it yesterday:
Shortens the throw quite a bit and also makes shifts smoother and crisper. Simple install, took about 45 mins!
