Well I guess I should update this thread a little bit since I haven't touched it since February....

I ended up having the STILLEN chin spoiler (Jay Leno) painted back in May along with having the LP holes filled in the front bumper cover. Beau and his guys at Caliber Collision did an excellent job!

Needed tires back in May after the stock Pirelli P-Zeros had reached the end of their life. Picked up a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports in a 255/40R19 & 275/40R19 stagger setup. Tires have been amazing for 14k miles so far, and still have a ton of life left. I haven't been able to really use them for their intended purpose yet, but I plan to come warmer weather. The taller rear tire gives the car a slightly exaggerated rake, which I love since it's a "Muscle" car.

I finally got my fog lights (LED and GT/CS) wired up how I wanted them to be, but I don't have any pics right now. Waiting until after I install the 4300K HID kit I bought from The Retrofit Source.

Some other parts that got installed that have been sitting in the garage awhile. Got the 3" After-cat MRT Boss H-pipe installed as well as the infamous Whiteline bushing. The MRT H-pipe gave my car the exact sound I'm looking for, and will only sound that much more amazing when I get actual Boss side pipes to go with it. There are a few exhaust leaks I need to get welded up, but it's great so far. The Whiteline bushing has so far done exactly what it was meant to do. Normal shifting has actually gotten better when puting around town, and shifting under hard acceleration is GREATLY improved! I haven't put it to the full test yet, but I plan to.

BMR LCA relocation brackets are still sitting in the garage waiting for me to order some BMR LCAs to go with them all at once, along with a Reische 160° thermostat.

Future upgrades come tax refund season are going to be a set ofslotted and dimpled rotors front and rear with some street/track pads, stainless brake lines, full Amsoil fluid swap/flush, and maybe a GT500 spoiler.

So until then, here are some pics taken with my new Canon 17-85mm lens I got for Christmas.
