UPDATE PAGE 4, Post 79!





Picked this up 10-23-12

No photoshoot just yet. Been SO busy.

The car was in the shop after a day getting the holes in the front bumper filled since they decided to bolt into it even when i told them not to.

Just got the car back. 10-31-12

Plastidipped the rear lower bumper, and wheels. I still need to touch up the wheels when i get a chance.

Mods that need to be installed. All mods should be here today, tomorrow, and monday the springs get here.

Sportline springs, Bmr panhard bar, bmr camber bolts, Roush chin spoiler, Bullitt style fuel door(going to paint it to match), redline hood struts, and my buddy's bro is giving me an offroad x pipe!(will i need a tune for this)?


Already installed my shorty antenna, reflector tint, Window tint.

By next week or the end of next week. hopefully ill have ALL the parts on and installed with a photoshoot.

Nice car, nice pics and tasteful mods man.
Quick question, what is it that you're "building" ?
I read the thread and I thought "ok let's see what this guy is doing, probably pulling the motor, boosting it... etc"

Thanks man! i want to keep it tasteful for sure.

And not really sure. I just put build thread because its for my car, that im building. is that wrong? lol i dont know. I just figured i would make a thread so i can update pics when i mod it. I plan on doing more things as well. figured i could just keep adding to this instead of making multiple threads.

rear bumper looks great! not really a fan of the wheels though. you should make a write up of how to dip that bumper.

A lot of 2013 owners have done this already. LOL

But the car is looking good, Michael! What brand antenna is that?

 

[Z25OH]

I did the same to rear valence except i used krylon semigloss black and left the red reflectors as is. Also i used a pair of old socks to go over the exhaust pipes, lol worked great!
