I swapped my Berk HFC's with CNT resonated test pipes. Made it a teeny bit louder but no rasp!
I also put in a TWM shift knob and installed my switch panel that will control my headlight LED's, when I get them done, and my rear fog light.

Thanks!

Took me a while to figure out where I wanted them.

Oh.. and I also put another $1000 into the Supercharger fund! Almost halfway there .

I love toggle switches. I think it is because of the XKE. Nice job.

As far as today, I turned off my VDC in the rain and started from a stop on a steep hill. I had more than a bit of wheel spin. The rest of the ride was fine.

I just finished installing the spc toe bolts. Grinding the holes bigger sucked donkey balls! Going to get it realigned tomorrow morning. They should be able to adjust my camber closer to stock. Yes!

Hmm, the ejector seat sounds like a good idea.

I wanted total control over the lights. The first one on the left is a three position switch for the main power. Up will be battery, middle is off and down is ignition. The next one is also a three position for the demon eye. Up will be red, middle is off and down blue.
The next three are just on-off for angel eye, landing strip and rear fog light.
The rear fog light has been modified to a two filament bulb and will be on whenever the tail lights are on and will get brighter when I flip the switch.
I will also have the angel eye and demon eye turn off whenever I turn the headlights on.
The schematic that I have drawn up has nine relays because I didn't want any power going through these switches.
I need to get home and work on this. I should be home Tuesday morning but I'm back out Wednesday for a couple of days.
Hopefully done with the headlights by the end of the month. Then its on to the springs and sways.

Got a lot to do before spring.

Picked my car up from Forged after getting corner balance and alignment. Rides great. Have a small rubbing issue up front. But thats no issue for my coilovers. Just raise it up.

Washed, vacuum and wax the car yesterday. Today took the car to C & C Williamsburg, VA. Nice to drive the car after like 4 weeks of sitting in the garage.

I couldn't take it anymore, I brought her outside for 10 minutes

Technically the law is you can't drive without winter tires between December 15 to March 15th here. Its a super dry day, just extremely cold.

I've only driven it home from the dealer, so I wanted to test out getting in and out of my steep underground condo garage.

Getting out:
Getting in, scraped a bit Need to work on angles...don't think i scraped the first time i went in

Took her down the street, got some stares then brought her back in.....sigh

Brought it to a touchless carwash (per AK370Z's advice during the cold days). I made the mistake of choosing "THE WORKS!" package for an extra $2. They sprayed blue conditioner crap all over the car and it didn't completely rinse off. Not to mention all of the leftover in the door sill, trunk crevices, etc. They let me go through the basic wash again free, but it didn't get it out of the crevices.
