Did you get your kit put on yet? I hope you did not go to Autohaus. I just noticed something they did to my car, when they colorsand the kit they sanded my door!!! Did not notice this when I have wax on but lately I can not wax the car so the wax got washed off leaving this rough grainy thing there. Do not go to Autohaus go somewhere else to get things installed. The shop I recommand would be Ikon becuase they put on some recent mod I have on and they look great! I recommand this shop to anyone!!! They will match Autohaus price the only thing that sucks about this shop is no credit cards, all cash transactions.
Oh! if you want to know my new mods here it is:
APR front strut bar
3 point rear brace
Tanabe rear under brace (coming)
Hood spoilers
Roof Spoilers
C-One rear spoiler (Tie fighter wing??)
TRD wheel flair (thin plastic piece by TRD)
3rd gen CAI with splash guard (change from 2nd gen to 3rd because of the rain)

Stereo stuff soon to come...

Wish you can see it, I will be at the show on 12/29 and 12/30 if you are coming to mbautosports meet come and check my ride out! Hope to see you soon! Lates!

Your car sounds like its coming together nicely. I haven't gotten the kit on because I have been so busy w/ Christmas and working two jobs for extra $$ doesn't make it any easier. I was going to take it to a certain shop down here but they ended up being really unprofessional. I will have it on by January. The most current mods on my car are the Tein coilovers, hotchkis strut bar and camber links, and the CF altezza(the fit is good). As soon as I get the kit fitted I will slam the car & take pics.
I don't know which meets I will be able to make but hopefully all of them. I want to go to at least the showoff classic but I am unsure w/ my jobs right now. I will see you and the car someday soon though.
I don't know if you want my opinion but I don't think you shouldn't get the hood spoiler or the roof spoiler. Since you have the veilside kit I think having three spoilers is to much. Everything you have done to car is clean but IMO you should only put the c-one wing on. IMO only.

Yeah, my car new name is called Overkill. hahaha
I had everything put on at once, so they are already on.
It looks abit crazy but hay that is what show cars are suppose to do, should see all the looks I get now.
I scraped my bumper again (just scrape at the bottom of the bumper), this is with just Eibach pro spring 1" drop. If you drop more your heart is going to ache at every driveway, speed bumps etc etc.
Hope to see you at the show, I will not be there until after 5P.M. because I gotta work until 4:30p.m... Made arrangements to have someone to take my car in though!
