    Happy birthday, car.

    Just remembered, my car has an October '89 production date, which means it's 22 years old now. Happy birthday, car. You've come a long way. I guess flogging it at the track this weekend is going to be a bit of a present.

            How long have you had this car? That is one hell of a lot of progress made.

                        Love the last color you did, and props on removing the plastic dress up kit. No clue why people want to hide all that cool tech bits =)

                          Never! I might upgrade to craftsquares eventually, though.

                          Rally Armor universal soft urethane ones. $100 for a set of four, make some brackets out of aluminum. It was pretty simple. They keep the car surprisingly clean and free from track rubber and road grime.

                          TRM C1s, 15x8+20 rattlecanned white. Probably going to powerdercoat them this winter since it didn't hold up to track abuse well. The paint is Porsche Bitter Chocolate / Cockney Brown, with two coats of some nice clear.

                          Thanks man! All red + light smoke = the business


                          Oh, and I just snagged a set of chrome grills to replace the blacked ones that I fucked up on the track (I was on the front straight when suddenly one of the surrounds flew over the windshield)

                          And this.
