I was laid off last year so I haven't really done much since then other than maintenance. Which of course I do all of. The only thing that has been done by a shop on my car is an alignment and mounting tires.

And now for a couple of pics. It's been a while since I've taken any and only have a few that were taken after the coilovers. Sorry, the pictures were pulled from different photo albums so they are not consistent in size.

Lol, probably not. Don't remember if those pics were taken before or after I tinkered with the ride height but as of now, the splitters are about 2.5 inches from the ground. I live in Charlotte and scrap EVERYWHERE, thus the license plate. Splitters have taken a real beating since I lowered.


Thanks for comments.

[danewilson77]

I thought that's what splitters were? >> bumper guard

Hehe

[zhp pilot]

For the price, it might be cheaper to replace the bumper then those splitters, lol. Bad financial decision on my behalf but damn I love them. Had cf club sport splitters before and now the OEM one's have made me hate CS splitters.

[danewilson77]

Yeah...I have a love/hate relationship with my bumper as well.

[Mtnman]

Welcome to the family fellow NC'er! Car looks great. And i like the plate.

[TRELO]

Glad to see you made it over here! Your car has always been an inspiration to me. I still have one of your old pictures saved on my computer. Such a beauty!

Welcome! Very nice! Long list of tasteful mods!

Hope you jump right in and provide some perspectives on some of those mods.

Do you have a pic of that roof? Did you have that wrapped or painted?

[Oli77]

Welcome Sir. Beautiful car love that color (wiiiiin).

To be precise though, dudes and dudettes with Non-ZHP are also players on this forum ;)

I did vinyl because I didn't know if I was going to like it. But I really do like it. About a week a half ago a large hail storm came through and dented my car like a golf ball. Needless to say, the vinyl will have to be removed for paintless dent repair. At that time, I'm going to have the shop throw some 668 on there to match the mirrors.

What phone do you have? I do a lot of work for BAMF Rom's for Thunderbolt. Here's my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043589

I also just released a theme for the ladies. No homo, but I think it looks badass, or about as badass as pink can look, lol. Post 2 has some extra stuff I did to mod the theme even more. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086331
