    That looks really nice man! I really wanted yellow when I was getting mine, ended up going red. Got any pics of the black badge and LEDs?

    I've gotta reverse about 20-30m every night to get to work in a narrow and bendy driveway and it helps to have brighter HID lights as the LED ones i had before weren't bright enough. I don't think I'll be getting into engine mods as I'll lose a fair bit of money when i want to upgrade so I'll invest in the stereo and just wheels.

    Thanks man.

    Yeah have thought about the chrome moldings, it would give it a bit of a classy look with the lip spoiler. Where'd you get yours from?

    At first I just cut out the center bits, replaced with straight pipes and put 2.5" straight through mufflers, it was loud but sounded terrible around and above 3000rpm. Got sick of it so i got a 2.5" stainless steel mid section; it's quieter but sounds way better and the mufflers aren't crooked anymore. Feels like it pulls a little more now too.

    Thanks mate.

    Got the springs and shocks but haven't been bothered to get it done yet.
    I'll probably remove the badge when I get the lip spoiler on.
