Nothing major but with all the pic whore threads popping up, I figured I'd join in since I've never posted pics of my car here.

2012 Premium. (tech/security packaged, comfort package, reverse sensors and back up camera, 19 premium wheels, auto).

It has about 5600 miles but has roughly 120 1/4 mile passes, has been to Hallet speedway in OK and a private road course in NW Arkansas... It's not my daily but I drive it like I stole it when I am in it. :D (that's what they are for right?)

Anyway, Here are a few quick shots of the car and some upgrades.

Show room floor :D

I just realized that this is my only pic not of a certain part that was taken in my garage and its crap quality, but you get the idea:

Me getting beat at the track (it's ok, I built the car beating me, a n20 pi swapped, full bolt on, full suspension 2v).

My most recent engine bay, nothing special but clean (well dusty but looks better than stock)

A cool night (grainy sorry) shot of the cs bumper with the factory HID's.

And lastly my feeble attempt to make the stock non brembo's look presentable. The factory caliper was already discoloring and looked like poo. So I cleaned up the brackets, sprayed with aluminum colored ceramic engine enamel and just used duplicolor caliper paint kit red for the calipers.

Painting the rotor edges and centers really cleaned them up as well.


That's about it, I have some nice boxes from Beefcake that ups is attempting to deliver, but I won't have tires for them for quite some time. I did have another set of big/little's before but the back spacing on the rears was not quite to my taste (stuck out too much). But here is a pic of that as well.

That's all for now, I plan on lowering it and getting tires for the new darkstars by the end of this year and just driving the tar out of it.
