Trav 350 (sliverbullet) build
Picked up a 2006 350. Love the car and how it's a animal yet smooth luxury car with a timeless design. It's a one onwer car that I drove to Virginia to buy then drove it back home.
I don't usually leave my cars stock for long so just want to show you guys the process and growth of the car.
Car came with a few upgrades already installed lucky me where most guy have to go out buy and install these things this cancels out a lot for me. Injen intake. What I believe is a Fsport Exhuast. Full Fsport suspention.. F shocks with F lowering springs and Upgraded rotors brake pads. Car has a new paint job as well.
Car sounds like thunder and handles and drives very sporty with the suspension. I want to look into the ISF ECU for steering feel even tho I like the smooth steering I have.
Here pics before any mods.

Here's a pic of my first "mod"
Painted the calipers. The 350 calipers are bigger then most car so thought I would make them look the part. Later on wiped off the over spray on the brake line and control arm.
I kno alot of people go with colors but I wanted something that was clean and complimented the car sliver was perfect.
Also where I was painting the calipers I took off the rotors and had them resurfaced at Pepboys for the free lol. Good to know people. But I would get crazy vibration when braking, now it feels super smooth when coming to a stop.
