im already looking for another set..... thanks. sure there is, diamond stitching and yada yada yada

all the pieces i did in black im already sourcing as i dont like the paint (some parts have chipped and i dont wanna deal with them fading/rubbing/scratching off so im gonna send the new ones out for hydrodipping but for the moment im gonna keep these.
more pics, still have some work on these. have to cut the light section out and the clip for the holder and sew the tops.

so she now has another OEM front cap this one i picked up from Chin when i got my black interior swap. just now installing it to replace my CF hood and my 2 busted fenders. fenders got rolled/pulled/stretched in preparation for the rims and sizes i will be getting. They will need a little bondo before getting painted but nothing major (2 small dimples on each fender)
i either will finish out the year in this color combo or i will get her painted this week if they can get me in..... Taba grill installed (also pictures arent finished as in some the front bumper wasnt bolted up/aligned)



























i look like Thomas's Evil step brother from his old pics before his paint minus the SC of course

nah just being funny




so car went to a local shop to get some that exhaust leak fixed and cure my P0430 i have had forever...well in my case it was Side 2 Bank 2 where the flanges meet,something hit the flange and did some real damage to my greddy so it wouldnt seal afterwards. not fixed completely yet but the correct part (since they one they used wouldnt work) has been ordered and i will fix it when i get back from Import Alliance. i took this time to install my Rear Tom's bar i got and the my JDM aristo exhaust brace.



















its hard to get pics of all of this but here is some more of the front
