Well it is hard to do, especially when some of the really good photographers on the site take stunning moving photos.

I can't wait to wash my WB. This winter has beaten her up. She needs to be clay bar'd into shape, lol.

Finally getting around to putting some photos up.

It's pretty much unmolested. Just a couple of bolt-on things here and there. I've been very satisfied with the way the car performs right from the factory. I just drop a little cash in it here and there when I can spare it.

The Injen intake and the front and rear Greddy Braces are about the only parts on the car worth much value. The carbon engine cover I was given but the damn Efini logo is about $30. Blitz pressure cap, Buddy Club oil cap, Racing Beat wires aaand, I think that's it. I made the catback myself out of two Magnaflows. I just kind of copied the photos of the Racing Beat unit and made the whole thing with stainless tips for about $190. I'll replace it with a genuine RB unit when they blow out or I just have the extra cash on hand.

Just put new coils in and did a de-carbon. Brakes will probably be next as my rotors are getting a bit grooved and pads worn. Now I'm just upgrading as things fail.
