Hey guys long time no speak. Just a little update on the project. So far I have not done a whole ton other than general maintenance. I installed a full set of cross drilled/slotted rotors with ceramic pads (not pictured), as well as LED tail lights literally right after I bought the car. Ordered and installed them within the first 2 weeks of owning the car. Just got the tint done on Friday, 20% on the sides/back window, took these shots Friday morning right after I got to work.





That's it for now! I am hunting for a late 90's early '00 4Runner for a solid DD so I can prepare for the Aristo swap.

**EDIT** She's a bit dirty right now, stupid CO winters!

Well guys an unfortunate turn of events has occurred. I was driving down the road when some senile senior plowed through an intersection right into me. Thank god I was able to save the slide and avoid hitting oncoming traffic. I'm at an absolute loss for how pissed I am to have lost such a rare car if it gets totaled.
