Completed a Compression Test today...still trying to make sense of the numbers...more than likely a blown head gasket.

Sold my bride seats

Bought some Chargespeed Bottomline Sides

Deciding which front lip is gonna go well with it since my Seibon TT lip shattered. Stuck between a replacement TT lip or a Veilside CF V2.

Had my brother use scratch repair paint to fix 6 scratches on my car. Some kid(s) got happy with rocks when they saw my car and left me with some pretty bad scrapes, thankfully my brother (who paints vehicles for a living) could fix them for me. He also filled in a spot on my rear view mirror that had paint missing. He also decided to restore my headlights just because he's a nice guy.

sorry some of the photos were taken in broad day light.











couldn't be happier with the results.

Sold my aftermarket bumper and sideskirts. Put on my stock bumper and polished my exhaust. Calculated how many weeks of saving $ until I can afford my new wheels lol

VSV2 would be my choice.

Great call going with the bottomlines!
