It's really sweet. Looks sharp and it feels better. The kind of metallic red color is "high class" and it feels a lot better to the touch than the milky white stock button, which is very generic and somewhat cheap feeling. For $35 or so and 10 minutes of your time to install it makes a BIG difference!
What he said...exaclty.

I also have some Nismo springs to install, which I hope lowers the car .05inches and I'm thinking might help my launch since they are stiffer than stock

Click on "Project Bugatti Beater" in my sig for details.

But I'm doing mostly aesthetic mods until I'm out of warranty.

last thing I did was the custom interior: seats, door cards, head rests, floor mats, shift knob and boot leather, and GTR start button. lol it was a lot.

next I'm looking into audio upgrades and maybe an exhaust or wheel spacers.

diff, gears, and rims are next on the list.


Last actual mod was swift springs. Last change was just modifying the alignment to get a bit more feel.

I left the fronts at 1.5*, rear was taken down to 2.6* from 3.3*. Biggest change was setting the front to zero toe.

Locon, this is what you are refering to? My comment was in form of a joke, nothing personal and this is the Internet.

No reason to insult me over a comment that is NOT racial or personal in nature!

To me YOU went over the limit on your reply, if you cannot take a joke don't post in the internet forums.

You know I'm going to let it go...free pass for you papa, ok!
