Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

nice car man! i really like the lowered stance, glad you went that way.
as per the photos, most members here including myself go through photobucket.
upload to photobucket.com, copy the IMG tags and post on here.
 
I top swapped after my freshman year of college. If i were you, I would just skip all your future mods except tint and HIDs and go turbo.
 
yep i agree! ^ turbo is the way to go especially since your N/A you dont have to go through all the top swap process and you'll make more HP with turbo
 


Save the money and turbo. I'm in high school right now and make like $170 a week. You could have a turbo in around 4 months if your in the same boat.
 
hit up ebay for the LEDs you can score a bargain if your patient got mine for $90 shipped, good luck got my power slot rotors from tire rack
 
Posting more pictures on..
Laminexed Fog lights yellow...turned out pretty decent.

Oh and to all of you, on the PRND indicator by the shifter, i took some rubbing alcohal and rubbed off the matte finish and made it gloss, it looks a lot better than the rough matte clear finish that comes factory.
 


06 Bleen Gt and i went for a little cruise last night...brought the camera for some pics.
30 pics, didnt feel like taking the things off.

UPDATE: HIDS in! 6k HID installed. $150 free install with lifetime warranty but the people screwed up and they added low and high beam HIDs. I showed up and they gave me the bill of $322...i said no, i just wanted low beam for $150. They ended up giving me Low and High beam HID for 150 dollars. Possible pictures up later tonight.
