It was 97, right now it's 80-83. What's nice is that I can just roll all the windows down and sunroof and enjoy an evening cruise around town. Hit up the In-N-Out for dinner and the Outback for a beer.

I still can't tell if it's the lighting or the actual hood as you can see, I adjusted the catches. The sun always falls on the passenger side of the car, when I back it into the garage where the lighting is more even it looks fine so I don't know. The DD diffuser sucked ass on fitment, it doesn't have massive gaps, but as seen, it's not as pretty as it can be. I'm going to replace it with the BMW Performance CF diffuser unless there is a really bad ass one for the E90 that is spot-on. I want to get a lip, but I'd much prefer splitters if they're available for E90 M3 reps. The skirts are Rieger reps from...DURAFLEX! It took a lot of effort for my shop to get them on since the molds sucked ass, I regret not shelling out the $500 for the genuine skirts since the labor rate murdered my budget for the kit. They fit pretty decent in the end even though they did try and fix some of the defects in the skirts, it's not glaringly obvious and if you looked at it you might think it's road damage. Everybody does M3 reps or sticks to stock, I wanted to be a little different.

All that's left at this point is my CSL trunk. After that then it'll just be minor bits and pieces like LED AE upgrades(next), aforementioned lip, CF mirror caps, I also want to do the backlit BMW Performance door sills for some pizzaz. LOL! My 18" F14 Forgestars in gunmetal should be here real soon and I still have to pawn off all the stock parts I got piled up in my garage LOL! Anybody wanna help me out?


***So I looked at the pics of when it was stock and the hood looks the same way, the lighting makes it looks weird, plus the angle I probably used.

Haha, did you watch Initial D? The name is only cool if he's an airhead Japanese kid that drives like a pro without knowing it.

I listen to the soundtrack when I drive, makes me drive faster and harder LOL!

haha Yeah, I just finished watching it.
I'd listen to all those damn songs every time I rode co-pilot with my friend. We would practice Drifting in his brother's AE86 and got pretty damn good at it going on runs through Bennett Valley Road from Sonoma to Santa Rosa lol
Haven't done that since the High School days. His brother is restoring it right now and hopefully dropping in the Twin Cam when he gets the paperwork sorted out. I'm crossing my fingers I will get to ride in it at least one more time. haha

Sweet! Hard to believe that the modern day Corolla used to be that little beast of a car. Now I laugh every time I see a Corolla with an S badge.

Ehh, idk. I want to, but then again I tell myself to just save the money and enjoy it how it is now. I'll probably change the color of my wheels or get a new set altogether for a little change.

This Monday was not so bad. My vacation is coming up next Friday so this week seems to be off to a good start.

My car doors won't unlock/lock from my car battery and center console button. Looks like I have a burnt fuse.
Thanks to BRGmatthew he replaced my '07 hifi underseat woofers to '09, sounds so much better.
Love those exhaust tips!
