Well I'm home from on leave from iraq, and while I've been in Iraq had a few things installed and had a few things waiting to get installed. I've gotten most of it is on now, here are some photos of the ride. I'm not the greatest photographer in the world but eh, I try
I'm really pleased with the exhaust, nice deep tone, perfect fitment, no issues, the silencer works well, although I plan to leave it out except for long cross country drives.
The eibach springs are working out nicely too, at first I was alittle worried I should have gone with the sportlines, but I like the conservative drop. Although I'm sometimes get a crunch sound in the back suspension, I use to get the same sound when it was cold outside, now it's off and on in all sorts of whether, any ideas on that? I'm hoping something back there just needs alittle lube.
Other then that think it's coming together pretty nicely, I'm trying to hit alittle of all the bases while modding it

Some of the bigger things

Vibrant exhaust
G-games Wolf 77 17'' rims (wish I had gotten 18's)
Eibach pro-kit springs
Front engine mount
KVR crossdrilled brake rotors
auto-exe brake pads
steel braided brake lines
********** guage rings
kart boy SS w/ bushings
AWR rear anti sway bar bushings
some minor things, various fluids, plugs, and blah blah blah

Here in the next couple of days, I'm hoping to recieve a DG motorsports fiber glass grill insert, and carbon fiber front downforcers. After that the next things I'm hope to hit are guages, FMIC, and management. We'll see what happens

tah-dah

get some sound clips since u love the sound so much

sure, can do, I'm not sure how my cameras microphone will do, but I'll give it a whirl
 
Love it man...I would like to see a side view with the wheels straight. I want to see the ride height because I'm really thinking of changing my springs to Eibach prokit...my Ion race spec springs are to low in front and the handling has changed for the worst. Are those 45 profil tires?
 
Well here is a profile shot as requested, and here are some shots of the key job some asshole gave to my right side while I was out today, makes me want to puke and cry at the same freaken time. I can't believe this s***.
I'm not even sure if it can be repaired and if it's worth it, can they repaint such a narrow field of the car without making it look like s***?

well here yah go

Have you heard of "the clunk" ...maybe?

yes, indeed I have, infact to counteract this for at least alittle while I replaced the bushings with AWR units, a crutch is not a clunk ;)

Ah man...I can't believe people, that's one of my worst fears, to the point that I don't go anywhere with my car anymore or leave it outside. I feel for you and thanks for the shot...that's what I want..it comfirms my plan. Good luck...I guess a compound job and some touch up can come out pretty decent for now.
 
if I caught someone keying my car or found out who it was, they better run fast cuz when i catch them they are never going to look the same again!!

BTW, very nice car!!
