Ce3kay's build Thread
Greetings from LV! I've been a member/lurking CL for awhile now so you've probably seen me around. I'm going to use this as an introduction and to document my build. I was very patience when I was in the market to buy. I wanted a Blk/blk 04-06 with low miles. So after 8-9 months of looking around, one finally popped up. I saw an ad in LA that matched perfectly of what I was looking for. 2006, blk/blk, and 45k miles. Made a few calls, and started driving down to LA from LV that night! Hehe. Well to keep the story short I showed up the next morning at the dealership and ended up driving home this beauty.
I've own the car for about 7 months now and its time to start my mods!

thanks guys! More parts came in. My Celsior window visors and an emblemless grill from Phil. Unfortunately all four of my visors arrived from Japan broken. I have to contact post office tomorrow and see if they can hook me up with a letter of damage so I can send it back to the seller.
here's a pic of the grill Phil sent me, came packaged right, wish them folks in Japan did the same..

Been awhile since I've updated this thread, but finally after 4 long weeks, I was able to build a box and got everything mounted and install my air suspension, and all three of the rear arms A lot of long nights, but the hard part is finally done.
Thanks to my boy Chris for lending the tools and helping me build the box for the tank and compressors.
mocking up the build

pulled the trunk apart to see what I was working with,
mounted the tank and compressor, and wired it all up to check how it runs and at the same time check fittings for any leaks.
tapped into the fuse box located driverside rear in the trunk for my 12v ign.
after test running everything, we mounted all four bags and since the car was already on a lift decided to installed my rear arms.

I'm on air, so far the ride is good. IMO it's just a little bit less then stock but then again my ride height isn't that low at all (I ride close to stock height).. I cant really comment yet.. only been on the setup for 3 days..

Oh and as far as price goes I got mine for a decent deal. Air Force suspension + accuair management varies but I would say around $3500-$3800.
