the type R lip is sickk! looks good without the fogs, just read what u said bout not having the oem fogs, making it look more aggressive, and i see it. :peace:

p.s
how did u paint your engine black? did u just tape it off and sprayed with high temp paint?
yes sir! i masked everything very well. i cleaned/degreased/sanded a little bit for better adhesion. i used Duplicolor High Temp Primer and then like 4 coats of Duplicolor High Temp Gloss Black. :) I LOVE how the black IM looks.

if i didn't think i'd get hassled with 20%, I would have. you're actually not allowed to have ANYTHING on the fronts here in NH. :boo:

were on the same boat. nj doesnt allow front tint and i didnt want to get hassled thats why i went with 35 lol. 20% would look better with my rear 5% but its whatever.

i really like your ride. if i ever decide to get into modding this will be a path to follow. i like how a few changes to teh exterior make it so much more agressive looking to me

damn man your car is coming along so nicely. the car's so clean. I still remember when I first saw your car at the 07 Springfield, MA meet. has definitely come a long way!

oh, and also, do you have a couple more pics of the black engine bay? you only have one pic here and there's a huge shadow over it.

Good job repping the gold coupes! the black im really contrasts nicely with the engine covers. you should paint the battery cover gold too! and black valve covers would have been sooo perfect with the black im and gold covers.

what car are you getting next you think?

just mainly wanted to get your opinion on 2 things:

A- how did you get the oem shift boot to sit snugly on the razo knob like that? also, did you use the 6th gen stock boot or the 7th gen stock boot? the 6th gen boot is vinyl and 7th gen is real leather i believe.

B- whats your review on the switchback turn signals? is it worth it?
