If I have it as in it's not in someone's shop for more work it's my daily driver. The goal for this year is to not be in the shop so much, but must keep modding.

Will have more of those in the next few weeks. No custom hood for me, I don't think the FX can pull off vents that gracefully. I'm not into CF really, roof lines don't look like the Gs so again I don't think it can be done well enough that I'd like it.

New mods? haha, should be partially done this week I hope. I do it and than talk about it, no hype up when possible. It's all for me in the end, I'm gracious of acceptance by my mod junky peers but it's not what keeps me going. I've found that I like to work on the weakest areas of the FX at a time, a little here and there keeps me sane and I get to enjoy new mods more often even if some are minuscule changes.

I hear you on asking for free stuff its not my thing either. It would be an honour just to be asked if your vehicle could be used in a booth at SEMA and no doubt a great experience.

funny, I've dreamed of doing that for years now, especially with fast bags & hydraulic doors, I picture a car coming into the staging area under remote control, dancing to the beat, flapping it's doors & strutting it's stuff....

only problem is the liability, I can see it getting away & killing someone... I try to keep mods non lethal if at all possible, maybe with like triple redundant fail safes or something, it really could be done

Scott Dukes is rad, he had all those remote flasher thingies and setting them and moving them around.

Just got it back from Competition Soundworks. Dynaudio 364s in the front and 242s in the back.

Js Gathering had a whole lotta classes. Got 1st Japanese Vehicle, and 1st Infiniti even though the plaque says G35 on it.

My tires are probably no bueno for snow, good luck finding chains hehe.

Where you going boarding? I miss boarding.
