I have a few major things to take care of in preparation for FocusFest 2013! Thankfully, it's still a long way out, so I should have enough time to get my car ready! Sadly, I will not be re-painting my car - I am going to just paint the bumper. I need to put some money aside to make it to the event! So for now, my car will be a "10 foot" car [hihi]

Thanks!!! It means a lot, I love your car[headbang]

I have recently aquired an SVT, which is now my parts car. Some of the SVT is going to make it into my car!!!! Why you ask? cause the SVT has no title.




The drivetrain might just find it's way into my car soon[hihi]

Thanks! I am still looking forward to actually mounting the white to see what it will look like!

So, I have been doing things again lol I will clean my interior soon!

SVT seats and doorcards:




I re-located my fire extinguisher to the hatch:


SVT snorkel:


I still got a long way to go!

I sold the air box, not the snorkel. Sucks that the dash doesn't match, but I took all the vents from the SVT dash to bring the color over. Looks better in person lol

Thanks guys!!! I am still planning on painting the bumper, don't worry lol

I found out that you can still see light shining through the eyelids. At night, it looks like a glowing CF weave pattern, looks badass!!!

I got some parts in today!!!

Floormats from Tim(I haven't had OEM floormats in 5 years, I am very thankful to get a set again) Thanks Tim!!!!


They will clean up nicely I think lol

Silver Contour valve cover:


I have some plans for it before I install it!

Euro glass fogs!!!

I started working on my car again, finally! I took the Euro bumper off and put my OEM back on. My OEM looks funny as hell right now because the crash foam is gone so it sags in the middle LMAO![rofl]



I will be working on the bumper soon. I want this OEM bumper gone for good now!!!
