Default Chums Dumpster: Where the Sun Don't Shine...

Trust me, it's been a long time since we got a break of sun up here in Washington, and last minute, some friends and I went out for a shoot. No pro stuff here, just a digital camera and some bromance. Sorry, the quality on the pics is reduced cause I'm at work and stole them off of facebook. These were taken right before I put on the AVS visors. Enjoy! (And YES my car is dropped on F-Sports hahaha...)

PS. This weather was short-lived. We're back to rain. Next on the list, some F/R wheel spacers and maybe coils. That's maybe because my driveway has a nasty slope.

Looking good. Keeping a black car up north in that climate must be a chore.
