Custom Axleback Muffler Delete
So, finally did my first mod this week. I took it in to a local performance shop and the result was amazing! The craftsmanship and fabrication work is absolute perfection. It's a custom bolt on axleback muffler delete, completely replacing the factory axleback. Went with 2.5" piping and 3.5" dual staggered, double-walled tips. Looks so much better than the factory tips in my mind and not to mention how much better it sounds over stock. Now the car sounds the way it looks. There is a slight drone between 2500-3200 RPM but it isn't unbearable. If it becomes too much, I can always get some resonators or small mufflers added. Overall, extremely happy with the outcome. Will get some more pictures and hopefully a sound clip soon.

Update
So, it's been awhile since I last updated this thread and a lot has changed. Here is the list of mods that have been done over the last few months:
More pictures can be seen on my Instagram, gh0st_rc. I update that more regularly.
- Konig Ampliforms in Dark Metallic Graphite
- Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
- AirLift Performance Struts with 3P Management
- Silkblaze Style Front Lip - Wouldn't recommend as it was a PITA to get to line up. Buy a real kit. I have a new/different lip kit on the way.
- RR Racing Carbon Intake Tube

New Wheels Coming Soon!
Picked up a new set of wheels in November and finally got around to test fit them. Currently getting the fronts rebuilt to make it a square set up (AWD problems) and I couldn't be happier with the fitment! I might have to add another half degree of camber in the rear to make sure they don't smack the fenders. Stay tuned for more pics coming in the future!

New Wheels!
Hey, everyone! I realized I never posted the new wheels on here. Here are my new 3 piece Rotiform ROC with hyper black faces and chrome lips! I loved how my Konig Ampliforms looked but there's just something about these that I think I'll be okay with switching it up.

Blitz Strut Tower Brace
I also got around to installing my Blitz Front Strut Tower Brace. It fits in nicely with my painted covers and PasswordJDM dressup bolts.
