Hey guys,

I wanted to update everyone on what I decided to do. I went ahead and upgraded my wife with a new vehicle, so I don't feel so bad with the mods. I ordered the following from Eddie at **********s.

-ST V1 coilovers
-10 & 15mm spacers (already running 162 style 18" staggered)
-LED rear blackout lights
-Matte Black kidney grill

I haven't received these yet, but I will be sure to update everyone once they are received/installed.

I also ordered an OEM rear spoiler from ebay....

I decided to upgrade the tires and I ordered a set of Continental DWS from tirebuyer.com (free shipping to Hawaii for July). WOW, what a difference a good set of tires can make for your car. It drives better than it ever has before, but I am noticing the suspension is a bit soft now (softer sidewall), I'll fix that with the coilovers. It is VERY quiet now, I love my car again.

I ended up repainting the center console with some vinyl paint because of the excessive wear and gave it a fresh waxing. It's amazing how much more you like your car after it's squeeky clean.

I'll post pics later.
