Went to sandblast the faces today after work, the factory coating is not coming off easily at all. Hopefully this heavy duty stripper will do the trick

Thanks again to heyarms


Also got my techstream lite today, hopefully programming tpms will be cake

Tire shows up tomorrow, lips will be ready Saturday.. Just need to get these faces done and ill be in business

Also picked up some skins for the front seats. As much as I want to do the red interior I'm still on the fence about it. May end up selling them and go all black or keep the grey until the rest of the interior is black before making my final decision

Finally getting a chance to do the brakes today. Really debating painting them at the same time.. But I may just finish the final details on the fogs instead

Didn't mess with painting brakes or fogs. Just lowered the front some more

Definitely a must for any of my cars. Changes the whole feel while driving.

Finally getting the non turn signal mirrors going. (No they're not the old style 06-08 large mirrors) they are the smaller sleek 09+ style without the turn signals.

So faces and barrels are back. Very happy with the results so far. Got one last thing to do and then they will be put back together. Is modding will be slowing down here though. "New" car should be in my possession next week if all goes as planned.
