A couple of these pics were at the Palm Beach International Raceway. The car ran a 16.1 which was better then I thought this ISlow-50 would do considering the heavy wheels I put on her.
I only ran her for fun just to see what she'd do. It's nothing like my old 350z.

Another pic is in front of one of my fav sushi places.

The 4th pic shows the dent in my driver side front fender from the tire hitting the fender on a bad pothole I couldn't avoid.

Had a whole day I set aside to fix some items.
My driver door handle got fixed by my buddy Kevin that owns a body shop. It had gotten chipped.

My rear reflectors LED's had 2 burn out so I took off the bumper to fix it. Some shots of my feet in one of the pics cause I had to walk away from the bumper for a second cause it was being stubborn.
Another shot of the rear bumper under my 55" flat screen and a messy **** living room from working on the car all day.

Last pic shows my LED headlights back from the retrofitter and my amp for the subwoofer came in the mail to my office.

One of these pics (I think the 4th one I uploaded) shows the money shot. The s2k projector sitting in the headlight bracket.
The rest shows the painted headlight. This is far from what they come like from the factory. Hopefully I can get some shots of the output. I'm trying to figure out how to seal the back of the headlight after I put a 1.8" hole in it.

The 4th pic shows (sorry it's blurry) the nav panel molded with no Hour Minute button next to the emergency flasher button

The last pic shows the new console lid I had molded thanks to my buddy Kevin, with the new impregnated heated/cooled seat retrofit i'm in the process of. (My car never came with heated/cooled seats)

The first 3 pics just show the console lid before I began the heated/cooled seat retrofit.

These last two pics show the heated and cooled switches actually receiving power. I'm starting to feel accomplished with this car. I love being a nerd. Pays for my modding addiction

No offence Jay, but you paid that guy all that money to retrofit your 2012 headlights and he did a half *** job. I hope he refunded you some money for that.

I think I finally realize what you may have meant.
Many people think the steering wheel isn't functional. FOR ME, however, it is. I'm 6ft 3 and stupid lanky from waist up. Couple that with the fact that I don't gangster lean in my seat and I actually sit up straight... The steering wheel top would get in my way of viewing how fast I was going past 60. I couldn't ever see it I'd have to crouch down or lean up to view the speedo. That got annoying. Plus this steering wheel forces you to be at 10 & 2.
However, if you mean the absence of the P, R, N, D window on my center console.... Well that is located on the instrument cluster anyways so mute point
However, if you maybe meant the absence of the next track, previous track buttons... Well those are located on the steering wheel.
But then maybe you meant the absence of a clock.... Well the time is located on my cell phone
Perhaps you meant my extremely dark window tint isn't functional? Well we live in Florida so it's for sure a plus

I said it once, I'll say it again. I should have gone through you. I didn't realize your skill level until your recent thread.
But no, I got no refund. And now I'm stuck to have to drill a hole in the back of this headlight myself

No worries. Unlike most I went with a 9.5" wide front wheel. This gives it more concavity compared to the 9" wide wheel.

The headlights were retro-ed in a way to be fully functional with the AFS that you find in the 2011+ cars. However, my car never came with AFS. Even if it did this headlight wouldn't work with the 2006-2010 AFS module as that module also moves left to right. THe 2011+ cars only go up and down. If I put this headlight in a 2011 IS that has AFS it would function just fine.
