So far here's what I have done...

It's mostly exterior stuff as I have yet to really begin on the engine or anything. I'm trying to work from the outside in.

I only got the car in March and decided to start doing mods around May, so it's still definitely a work in progress.

My mods thus far:

-K&N CAI
-Avant garde m310s w/ Bridgestone Potenza S-04 PP tires (9x9.5 on 245/35/19 front and 9x11 on 285/30/19 rears)
-Plasti dipped handles
-Plasti dipped side markers (the Z and silver ring, not the whole thing)
-Plasti dipped emblems and badges
-Custom graphite and glossy black headlights w/ dual halos done by nut_n_much
-Swift lowering springs

Next mod: new calipers! (Prob for Christmas)

And the headlights:

Doing a quick wash tomm since it's crazy dirty right now with all the rain we've gotten this week.

Just bought almost $500 worth of detailing stuff from chemicalguys.com, so it'll be getting a full detail next Sat.

Here are a few of the pics from my iphone that I took today...

There are tons more on my camera, but I'll upload those later.!

Our cars look so good without the ugly chrome headlight housing.

How did you get nut n much to do your headlights? Does he do them on an order basis? I kinda want to do that to mine! Looks good!

LadyZ · 09-08-2013, 07:10 PM

He's local, so I just had to buy the parts and then paid him to do the install. He does an amazing job and is a wonderful chap!

I don't know if he does out of town orders, but message him and see!

LadyZ · 09-10-2013, 08:03 PM

Got all my detailing stuff in today!

I can't wait til Sunday to detail it!!!

Looking good Ladyz

Nicely done.

LadyZ · 09-14-2013, 02:54 PM

Just call me a druid...

Before....

After....

The headlight restoration kit I used was super easy and they came out crystal clear. VERY satisfied! Here's what I used: Chemical Guys ACC_RES - GlassyLite Headlight Restoration & Protection System

Ignore the bug guts on the paint. It's getting detailed tomorrow.

LadyZ · 09-15-2013, 10:53 AM

Javi detailed my car late last night. It looks so good now! No more swirls!

Pictures to come later.

Got bored so I blacked out my tail lights with plasti dip. I did one layer of black and 3-4 of glossy clear. I think they turned out pretty well. They'll eventually get done professionally, so this was a good temporary fix.

SPOHN · 09-16-2013, 03:06 PM

I did mine like this the first time. Was pretty happy till I had then done professional. Big difference. Especially for only $100.
