Well I finally had a couple of hours to spend on the car this morning. As most of you have probably noticed I haven't had many updates recently. Between family stuff on the weekends and being busy at work I haven't had any time to spend on the car. This morning I got up early and headed over to my friends house. We did my SS brake lines front and rear along with my Fast Intention HFC's. I'm really happy with the HFC's. They make the exhaust deeper, but not much louder which I'm very happy about. While I was at it I also raised the suspension a little bit since I was having problems bottoming out on just about everything. I didn't raise it much. Only about 1/4" in the rear and about 1/2" in the front. Hopefully that will help with my problem. Here are some pics from today.

more mods for mike
hey, nice job and nice pics,
the most important mod for me with your car would've been the spoiler - i have an 05 at athens blue and i put an 07 rear spoiler on and it is awesome,
if you wonder how to get the holes drilled and fit go i can post some pic - if done right then it looks clean and even when the trunk is up - no one can tell

Well I got some more motivation tonight and installed my projector headlights and my HID fog lights. I didn't start until almost 8:00 so I was trying to hurry up before it got dark. The whole process took me just about an hour start to finish. Sorry for the crappy pics, but it was dark by the time I finished. I'll try to get some better pics in the sun tomorrow. I really like how the led's look, but even better is how the painted lights look against the red paint. I can't wait to see them in the sun.
I also installed my clear corners since I had it all apart. I like the way they look when the lights are off, but I don't like the look of the yellow bulb when they're on. I'll have to find some hyper white led's for them and swap them out.
My HID wires coming out of teh headlight with strip caulk sealing up the hole I made.
With just the parking lights on

Well I still have to roll my fenders so I can get the Volks on, so I may do that next weekend. Then I still have to finish making all of the cosmetic panels in the trunk to make that look all nice, but the summer is tough for me. My wife always has something for us to do on the weekends and I usually like to take one of the days to ride my MC, so it doesn't leave much time for working on the car.
I also may still end up doing some kind of body kit, but I'm trying to stay away from that for a while because I know that will turn into an expensive ordeal. I can see the entire car getting repainted and the roof done in black. I bet I would be 5k deep into it and I don't want to spend that kind of money right now.

Cats are neither and from what I have read wrapping them cuts their life expectancy significantly and for some manufactuers will void the warranty.

Just my opinion but wrapping or ceramic coating headers is good. The same does not apply to cats. They need to dissipate heat as quickly and as efficiently as possible.
