WOW! Your car looks amazing! I was looking at a yellow SS and had just bought the TSW Nurburgrings in matte gunmetal and searched google for the combo. Your car came up and I fell in love...

Hope you don't mind a car looking similar to yours but it's freaking awesome looking! Keep it up!!!

Thanks. I saw on another post of yours that you got the TSW's. One thing I might suggest is you do away with those nasty chrome TSW center caps. Here was my fix. Dupli-Color Perfect Match (Storm Gray Met). This stuff is pretty mutch a perfect match.

I already posted this, but I felt it was worthy to be incuded in my build thread. Just picked up the diffuser from another C5 member. I also order the 3 1/2 inch exhaust tips from:

http://tips.byethost4.com/

Here are some pics. The finished product is a few months away because she's in storage still.

Thanks, No... not yet. I'm not really sure how I would find out if it does Win car of the week. Maybe I get a private message from one of the moderators.

Thanks. I don't think I could have used this as a daily driver if I wanted to with the weather we have been getting lately here in MI.

My Invos came yesterday. 275/315. Man... these things are a lot wider looking that I thought they would be. Can't wait to get them on the car.

No doubt... I was just telling someone yesterday that last year I had my car insured the last week of February. The way things are going I don't see getting it out this year until the middle of April if were lucky. Lope to see you around. Are you involved in any car clubs? I have got together with the Detroit 5th Gen a few times, but overall I'm just a car enthusiast that just likes to get out and cruise.

I am hoping for mid April, earlier this week looked promising. My car is in heated storage so it makes it a little easier not having to look at it sitting in the garage. I do have a collection of new parts waiting to go on when spring does get here. Have not attended any 5th gen events yet, like the local cruise nights and like you, just get out and drive.

Oh man you have one heck of build! What was your track time after blower install?

Thank you. I had it to the track with the blower only one time and was able to make two passes. I had a lot of factors working against me that day. It was 80 degrees out, I basically drove to the track in rush hour traffic for two hours to get there and had no cool down time, and I was running on the stock tires. First pass I missed a gear and my only good run I did was a 12.01 @ 119. I think it had a lot better time in her if the conditions were optimal. I'll have to wait until spring now.

275/315 Nitto Invos installed along with my new quad diffuser. Just waiting to have the quad tips put on.
