Is it the lighting or the paint that looks sketchy on the engine cover? A little more time spent and it could look as clean as the rest of the car. Nice!
got a new sticker on the back glass nothin special
got new emblems and plasti dipped the hatch, new low rise spoiler and hood and removed my military police sticker (messed up three sets of windshield wipers in a month)
rims have curb rash from the previous owner unfortunately
the plasti dip needs to be touched up a little in a couple areas other than that its pretty good
and won 1st at siknic car show for Kia/Mazda/Hyundai mild class
next on my list is headers then over haul the sound system both will take a good bit of effort but it'll be worth it and after looking through trunk layouts on here i think ill still have a one of a kind
Went to the drag strip today to get my starting times(well close to stock) and I'm a little disappointed but I think it's partially this slow because of a small exhaust leak and no Tune yet we'll here it is
I'm the one on the right with a time of 16.025 in the quarter
They hit pretty hard I'll figure out how many decibels probably the beginning of March then in like April or may I'm goin to swap to some custom made 10"s that I'm gunna get made that'll better handle the power from the amp
Damn thats alot of miles and its still running?
60k? I thought the timing belt was done every 100k? how much does it cost you to maintain it plus the timing belt?
Got my angel eyes put in and can I just say damn they're sexy the blue is my favorite but the red looks sick too I got the multi color from @DIOdedynamics they were very easy to deal with and they came out great will definitely buy from them again anyway here they are =)
I just gotta take the housings back apart cause I got a finger print or two in the inside like a newbie
-.- gotta learn some how though right?
I installed the highs for my sounds system Kicker 6 1/2" door speakers and kicker 6x9s in the back seat with a 800watt 4 channel kicker amp with some newer door panels that don't have any scuffs on them with some true carbon fiber door pulls and changed the spark plugs and wires with NGK wires and NGK iridium IX plugs
Little update shaved and plasti dipped the hatch removed the Plastidip from the roof and hood tinted the tail lights painted some interior pieces put in LED license plate bulbs and a LED third brake light and rewired the Angel eyes to work off the side marker lights
Got a little update installed my dc sport headers and changed to the no a/c belt haven't removed the compressor yet though
Also put I'm my AEM wideband with a carbon fiber dual a pillar gauge pod
I also put in some footwell LEDs and dome light LEDs all blue don't have pictures of that at the moment
