    So over the past couple months I have decided that I am going to really try hard to get my GP the way I want it, Aesthetics and Performance, I have had it since July of 2011, and been slowly working on it. Time and Resources have told me otherwise, but I am still getting it done. So far I have put only a couple things on it.

    - LED Tails
    - SLP Catback
    - New Tires
    - All Prevenative Maint.
    - Rear Letter Inlay
    - Front Logo Overlay
    - 180 T-Stat
    - Stainless Headers w/ Down Pipe
    - VHT Tint
    - 5000K HID Low
    - Debadge
    - Interior LED's
    - New Battery
    - HV3 Insert
    - SE Front Lip

    Stuff I would like to do eventually
    - New Wheels
    - New Strut/Spring
    - Top Swap?
    - Window Tint
    - Paint Things

    I appreciate all comments, and like opinions, so please let me know what you think I should or shouldn't do.












    This was after my 8 hour drive home, so it was still a bit dirty

    I like it. The more I see them, the more I like the LED tails. Check out my 08.

    And how do you like the sound of the SLP? I have been wanting to do exhaust on mine.

    Looks good man, only one question. The rear shot, is your catback mounted, as is are the tips that far to one side now? Otherwise I approve, my twin in the making.

    And smile it's Blacktooth Grin!

    Those tails are growing on me as well. Looked sexy on Jake's car and this car. But still can't bring myself to buy em.

    I enjoy it, got a nice little rumble to it, the worst part is driving long distances, but for city driving I get some looks.

    Lol, yeah, I upgraded from the single to dual, and I guess there was no mounting brackets when it came, so a couple metal bends and rubber couplers and I was set, although I would have to say it is still pretty tight in there even after everything is set in.

    very good head unit, lot of options, only thing is the button seems kind of loose to me, other than that it fits nice

    oh the car looks good too LOL

    Good start so far, you need SPO grilles! I think Silver would work well

    Some crappy quality pictures of front and back, and an even worse shot of my new gauge



    Some parts for the header install in March, headers came in too, didn't take pics



    It's almost insulting to be surrounded by all these parts without tools and resources to install them

    Question:

    Why did you buy o2 sensors? Just re-use your stock ones.
