Speeding is illegal.

Put new EmblemPros emblem on... Next is a 2SS one when it comes in the mail.

This is the look I was going for! But I might go down straight with the stripes and not curve inward at the bottom of the bumper, not sure yet

Installed 3rd Brake light vinyl... purchased on eBay for $13.00. Seems like the left side was cut more rounded instead of a more outward angle. I'll get a little cut piece from the local vinyl shop that is doing my windshield FIFTY.

Last picture is the redneck way of needing to press your brake to get the lights on... but you're alone!

I installed the Cags Skip Shift eliminator on mine yesterday. The Install was easy but getting the car up off the ground sucked!. I was trying to use ramps but apparently you need rhino ramps with the low car extensions or something because the front lower fascia was not going to clear. I had made some extensions out of wood that I used on a previous car but getting a 6 speed up the ramp and not rolling back. (Even hill assist would eventually let go while trying to ease it up there). If I did it too fast I was worried the wood extensions would kick out of place. Eventually I just located the jacking point in the front and jacked the front up and set it down on the Ramp. I had room then to get under the car to install the shift eliminator.

Cool, just did mine last week. I stretched it a bit to fit better...

Still can't decide is I should add pin stripes to the inside 🤔

I like the full length stripes, and dig that you are doing this on your own, but I personally would ditch the pinstripe. Something is off about it to me. Trying to picture it with a black pinstripe but maybe none is the way to go. Just my opinion.

I appreciate your opinion, I think the white on the grill is throwing it off/taking away from the stripes

Can't wait to see the outcome no matter what you decide. I contacted someone to do full length stripes, like you are doing, and they quoted me $800. I can't justify that. I'm pretty sure I can do this myself if I choose to. I'm going to try a hood wrap on my own first. Seems like it may be easier.

That's the tire I'm looking at when the time comes due to some recommendations I have seen. What made you decide & what did you compare against?

BowtieRocket · 10-13-2016, 04:47 PM

These were suggested by a sponsor here and I was debating these or Michelin PSS tires. So far these feel good and seem to hook better than runflats so far.

I decided on this . I'm gonna have to add some white accents to tie it all together. It all cost me about $100.
