      Ok, so some updates.

      Here's a picture of the Massive boosterless break setup I installed last time I was home. Please ignore the ugly, extra brake line.




      Started more work on the interior. Adding center console, taking stickers off/ cleaning stuff up. Still needs paint and a lot more other work. Still a total mess :(







      Repainted my grills, put the high beams back in.






      Still there from the burnout!




      Found a way to securely install my center caps, much better looking now!




      Low dust carbon ceramic pads they said, will hardly be able to tell they said... This is after one day. I clean them every day -_-





      Had a little mishap due to a distracted driver today.




      Drove through the worst parts of Baltimore this past friday, only damage! This plate continues to amaze me.

        Redoing the front end, and wrapped my rear trunk in wrapping paper and plastic wrap.








        I've honestly grown to hate my valance/ bumper combo, any opinions/ suggestions? Working on a few of my own.

                Hahaha, I just want my front bumper to match again. It's all totally a different color

                I'm actually really drawn towards an Alpina rep lip and getting a nice early model valance :)

                          How do you like the grip royal wheel? You running ps? Mines a looped ps rack so im not sure how it'll work with a smaller wheel but the stock ones hard to handle after a let go.

                              Love it. No ps, no bolts the rack is just open hahah. I've had no problems grabbing the wheel even at ~40mph.

                                Do you like the feeling after the brake booster delete ?
