Don't forget to Plastidip: the roof, tail lights, rear signals, mud guards, and most importantly, the emblems.

Scheduling an appointment to get my car professionally detailed this weekend. For those that have seen my paint, you can definitely attest to me needing a paint correction/detail. I'll post before and after pics.

Niche Targa M130's. Here is a pic of how she sits now but thats with 1 in spacers all around, the front definitely needs that half in bump and the back has plenty of room to go farther out... guess thats what happens when you buy 17x9.5 and 17x8 with a +40 mm offset lol

Installed a Body Ground to a Positive terminal for NRG Voltage Stabilizer (EPAC-300) and saw significant improvement in the electrical system. Onto installing Stillen's grounding kit next, but want to wire loom it so it will look stock.

Happy Fourth of July
