Some updated pictures.

Refinished the wheels, lowered it more, front camber set to -2.4, rear camber set to -4.9. Had the steering knuckle shortened 2", Installed Battle Version toe & trac bars in the rear. Have TC sportline RUCA's waiting to go on. Will also be shaving the trunk emblems real soon. Just punctured a hole in my 1st cat so Im gonna replace both of them.

Katzkin leather replacements cost around 1 grand, depending whether you get 2 tone, specialty leathers (ostrich, alligator, etc), and such. Its temporary until I get around to making it all a dark red color.

me? I'll re-wrap the whole interior. I'll have a shop do the seats because of all the stitching and what not but I'll do all the panels, dash, headliner, etc. Gonna have to dye the carpet though.

In 2 years, my pay will be doubled at my job and this cars really gonna go under the knife. Im picking up a DD in the next couple weeks to work on this more. Eventually I would like it dark silver/grey (not quite dark like gunmetal, i really like the cement color on the new Scion TC's) with a maroon/dark red shade interior. GTE swap will come before any major body mods....eventually though, plan on keeping this car for a long while
