I took a new job in North Carolina and have been real busy. But I make sick money now so I am going to spend some on the GP Rims, Window tint (35% legal in NC!! Whoo hoo!), navigation head unit from GM, some upper end work (rockers/springs, etc), suspension/brakes, couple other goodies and oh yeah, that sweet dual scoop hood from PFYC If that all works out I may actually look into a turbo kit

That hood is awesome. I saw two of them today in person (at a local club event) for the first time ever, they are even more stunning than pictures can show.

My sig picture is over a year old. I have much more done to it now. I will have to update the picture. Rims are black now (just painted with that good rim pain) Calipers are gloss black Guage pillar couple other things. Whenever I go to the autobell the people keep asking me if it is some special edition GP I get a kick out of it Oh, and after roughly 8 months, the super 40's are at their peak sound right now...standing behind my car while its idling will make your teeth rattle

Yeah, you definitely need to ditch those stock wheels! Bullitts will make that car look completely different (not to mention WAY better)!

So I am in negotioations with AFS people about getting a rim/tire combo. They have 255/45/18 and 245/40/18 but no 245/45/18 How bad is the speedo going to be off if I get the 245/40/18 tires? I ended up getting a Garmin GPS 10 unit for my Windows Mobile 6 smartphone. Awesome device, has a rechargable 18 hour battery and the unit is bluetooth so you can go hiking, sailing, etc with your phone/gps instead of having it setup as a static car only nav system. (I found the perfect car mount system for the whole spiel if anyone is interested...only took me purchasing 6 items off Amazon to find the right combination of GPS mount and phone mount) Also, found these for $90.00 cheaper than the other place you can get them. Gunmetal taillights Also black out headlights for cheaper than ebay: Blackout headlights And last but not least, a bolt in HID conversion kit from our friends at ZZP that will not void warrenties and such: HID conversion kit I am also going to be finally installing the red LEDs I got a while back in the wheel wells and grills (lots of wiring. Going to tie them into the interior lights so they only work when the door is open or I manually turn the inside lights on...don't want any unnecessary tickets and all) Stay tuned, I promise I will post some pictures in a few weeks when its all done
