DOH! That didn't take long! These are the only stickers that will go on my car. And they're actually aluminium stickers :biglaugh:

Another quick update:
I stopped by Shaeff's place today. We stripped the complete interior out of his white car.
We also did some work to the flange for my custom downpipe set-up. Since I'm going with an HKS T3 Manifold, the turbo is going to sit slightly titled. I'll have to use an adjustable V-band set-up to correct this.
I have found it nearly impossible to find the correct flange for my turbo so I had to go with one from ATP. It wasn't perfect, however, we made it work. I forgot to buy the right drill bit so we had to use ones he had laying around. We were also using a very old drill press.
Here's the link to the thread I originally made regarding the flange:

It's not perfect, but it's strong enough and will do the job. I also have to continue grinding down the adaptor module in order to remove the lip for welding. The holes line up well. We're ready to rock...

Thanks Sam. I got the carpet set from custom fit carpets. They're from the same lady who did the group buy for the floormats.

Update....Sorta...
Well, I was planning on doing tons of work to the car today, however, I had to do yard work for my mom (That's what happens when you live home again :nono
On the bright side, I just got tickets to tonights Yankee Game so I'm pumped about that. Expect a drunken update from the game (Gotta love the Blackberry).
I'll get after it tomorrow morning. Later guys....

It's been way too long. I might as well update this thread.
I started a new job. Luckily I'm making good money, but I haven't done any work to the car. I still have to put together the interior and finish doing some electrical stuff. I think I might sell my Maft Pro and go full stand alone. Besides that, maybe a set of coil overs and hopefully the car will be complete.
I also bough a motorcycle. It's a 2003 Suzuki SV1000S Full Fairing. I'm a new rider, so it will be a learning process but I have some good teachers. Will update you on my progress.
Hope everyone is doing well.

Hahah Crisp. I did indeed. Rode it for the first time yesterday. Actually, it was my first time ever on a bike. Did pretty well considering.
Thanks Emp. I'll get her done, don't worry. I just picked up a Tial 38mm Wastegate to finish up my manifold set-up.
Shaeff, Chris, whatever the hell your name is (
), you need to give up and sell me your interior already. If I had that, then I would have the motivation to finish up my project. hahahaSuruko, it's good to hear from you. I'm glad you're still active. Hope all is well!
