Lol radio reception. I've used AUX for the past 2 and a half years so I had no problem getting the $4 ebay antenna.

Looks good Craig. Making good progress!

Its hard for me to wrap my head around how white my car is going to be. As I do more of it, the white just seems to keep getting brighter

And I don't expect anybody to realize its wrapped without looking closely because its a plain color

Next pulleys for my Vortech bracket came in so I can get rid of my damn belt squeak. And my new remodeled intake came in as well.

Majority of my wrap is finished. Just waiting for more knife less tape to come in. Got half of the rear bumper done and had to stop. Just the rest of the bumper and the new hatch/spoiler setup left.

And the new intake setup for the vortech is now more visible from the front

That looks great man. I'm waiting on more knifeless to redo my rear bumper as well. Yours seemed to go quicker than mine. Must be nice having a second vehicle. I need to get on that...

Everyone needs an extra vehicle. Only downfall is sometimes you end up neglecting them.

I just got my second car 2 months ago. It is only a bad weather car and a 'Im doing work to the Z' car. So the z is by far still the daily but having something else is nice.

I was actually talking to someone the other day and told them I had 440whp and he was like "Wow that would be so unexpected"... Well yes, if they happen to miss the intercooler basically sticking out of the car, and all the body work and flashy pieces

Forgot to add this spoiler update in here over the weekend. I believe this was how it sat as of Saturday morning. He did a lot of filler work and filled in the wiper hole last night. Now just to finish up the glaze and primer it.

Looks great! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out after paint and install. I need to have my Stillen spoiler painted and have been considering getting it molded.

Fixed that for you. Good thing about wrap, I can have it done in a day and don't have to wait for a body shop

Yup, I'm going to be going this route. My INGS spoiler doesn't fit worth **** so my peeled paint is still visible through my wrap. How willing is your friend to do another one of these in a few months time? If not, I can figure something out. I'm impressed by his work though.

I'll ask you for his contact info then later this summer. Definitely willing to pay for his quality even if it is more (considering mine doesn't fit as well as your APT wing - will never buy duraflex again)

Ready for paint.
