Haven't updated this in forever. Didn't do anything to the car over winter besides drive it.



Drove slammed, kitted, with the wheels on all winter. Spring came along and I finally detailed it and got all the winter grime off. Front lip was cracked in half and I ripped the side skirt off on a speedbump. Took those in to the body shop and they are now back on and look good as new.

Staged with JDM Chicago Staff at Slammed Society Chicago:


No idea who took that pic, so sorry for the crazy bend your neck JDMtyte angle.

Wheels were pretty beat up after winter. Had some minor curb rash and the anodizing was terribly oxidized from salt (apparently constantly washing the wheels isn't good enough).

Took the wheels off in anticipation of a mild refresh:



Here's a teaser of what's to come:



Next update should be in a few days when I get it all back together. I have a feeling my new set up might get some hate around here, lol.

Driving to Philly for Black 4 next weekend, so if anyone is going to be there stop by and say hello.
