Extreme weekend modding!!
Well i started the weekend with a little maintenance on the ride. first i changed the oil


then i decided my shift **** wasn't cool enough so... carbon fiber! lol


then i wanted my steering wheel to look cooler too! so...


then i walked around my car and it was missing something so i put this little thingy on

mugen style lip!

the weekend wan't over yet so i decided my brakes needed to be changed!



rear discs & ss lines!!! FTW!!! it was a major pain in the ***!

and i washed my car, and cleaned my new chrome exhaust tip!


What a weekend! I'm tired now!

Clean wheels. Is your car lowered or no? Either way, that black on black is just sick. Nighthawk Pearl FTW.

How much of a difference in feel did you get from the SS brake lines?

Clean ride sir.

Re: Extreme weekend modding!!
^^agreed, it looks hella lowered to me, about a 1.5 inch drop or so? the ride looks hawt though, for practical reasons a rear disk conversion is almost useless as 80% braking is in the front, but damm that looks ballin!
