I've been meaning to post in this thread for a couple of weeks now, so this is more 'the past couple weeks' than it is 'today' - just a catch up

So, with pics (shitty iPhone ones - sorry), I:

1) Used a red acrylic fabric pen to dye my white stitching red (as I saw others had done elsewhere on the forum). Took ages because I'm a perfectionist but it came out pretty good.



2) Got that plastic fog light replacement plate (that winds me up SO MUCH) wrapped in a carbon fiber imitation material as a temporary measure before I get the F1-style blinking LED array. Actually, the stuff looks quite good - thinking of doing my b-pillars too! (What do you guys think?)



3) Found a new home for the Megatron 370z Transformer I bought as part of my obsession before I got my real Z.



4) Got her tinted - 15% on the sides, 5% on the quarter rear and rear. Now I'm ready for the Vegas summer heat.



5) Took her for a cruise around Red Rock loop for a few hours purely to get some nice pics of her under the blue sky with some nice scenery.



6) Oh, and I ordered a 24-row Stillen Oil Cooler - which I literally JUST got an email about saying it shipped today after a long wait - and a Nismo carbon fiber shifter knob, which I only ordered last night so no pics for that.

Now, what to order next...? (Damn... I have the bug)...

$500 - wow that is cheap for a catback. I'm holding out to get the Fast Intentions kit though. I want those power gains.

I was going to also, but i'm not sure 3x the money is worth the possible 5-10 more HP. with the savings a tune can be done...

Wow! Way to call your buddy out! I was going to say something untoward about it, but felt that I should be a little more tactful in case there was something behind the fear!

Well then, I hope you redlined the shyte outta your ride on the way to your destination while telling him to suck it up!
