Oh, and congrats on crossing 1,000 posts - if it wasn't for that trip to Anaheim you'd have more posts than you do miles on your car...

Looks great. Especially the JoeZ. Now ya gotta fix those holes in the bumper! I feel really bad for those of you who have these due to dealers putting plates on or states that insist on front plates. Sorry man!

Looks awesome, haha. I like the engine cover and intake. The front grill doesnt really appeal to me, but if it makes you happy than great!
