Now you're talking.
In all seriousness though Tony the car looked great this weekend, I know you put a ton of work into it over the past 9 months (I still remember when we were sound deadening in your garage seems like so long ago and that was just the beginning) and it paid off, everything looks awesome. I would have loved to have seen both ours laid out next to each other. Looks like I need to get cracking on a new build.

I've went through all 30+ pages of this thread and I must say an extraordinary amount of work went into you're car. The most impressive thing is how extensive all your mods are, the attention to detail and the amount of creativity that went into it is nothing short of amazing!
Your car is definitely top notch in my book

Did you paint the homelink buttons as well, or did you find some black buttons?
If you painted them, how well does the paint hold up to use?
VERY NICE INDEED!!!
Got any more pics of your carbon fiber interior accents?

thanks! that's the reason why i took so many pictures i didn't want to miss anything.
i painted the console using sem vinyl and plastic paint and i dyed the rubber buttons with flynnswax.com's black dye. haven't had any issues yet. as for the carbon inside, i am going to post some pics up soon. just haven't gotten to them yet. been super busy at work 
but i guess that's a good thing
