Chinky_Sti · 02-21-2008, 03:51 PM

that would good on your car chris.. you need to bring a lil bit of color on that black..

Chris05STi · 02-21-2008, 03:56 PM

Yah, thats what I want to do exactly. So I think gold huh? That would be a nice offset to the Advans?

Chinky_Sti · 02-21-2008, 04:01 PM

yup i agree.

Chris05STi · 02-21-2008, 04:08 PM

Thanks bro for helping me ahhaha, I am def gonna go with that.

Chris05STi · 02-22-2008, 06:18 AM

Yay for snow! Flat tire in the driveway FTL!

Drove my WRX, and then it was pulling. I was like WTF?! Pulled back into the driveway, FLAT. On a donut now. Oh well, Kiwi has 2 Toyo Proxes 4 that I will just throw on the rear, and leave the good tires for the front. This is a temp fix until I get snow tires for the stock WRX rims, and then a dedicated summer rim/tire set. Stupid snow, you would think they would delay us here at DOD, nope! I gotta say, the WRX is awesome in the snow though, traction is great, and its really great not being scared messing up a $900 Ings+1 front bumper ahhaha. Sleep STi, sleeeeep. My Camaro is in a coma in weather like this, you got to be crazy to drive her in this weather, well I actually did for 5 years lol. Ok, back to office work which is hardly any! /end rant

damn that sux. well welcome to my work days

considering my normal work ,this little 6 month break of sitting in a cubicle with civilans is ****in sweet !...damn i never noticed the roll bar. i always like lookin at that little coloring in the trim, really should have same that way. such a small thing but it looks cool

Chris05STi · 02-22-2008, 10:21 AM

Yah its a small mod but def cleans up the interior, that and the headliner really set it off. The parts that are grey in the pics, well they are getting wrapped in CF eventually

. Also the A, B, C pillars with the seat belt caps too.

Thanks to Kiwi Ian, I now have Toyo Proxes 4's in the rear, WRX is all good now

. Next Saturday I will have the new front left wheel bearing on her. No more humming!

APS Fuel Rail Kit for my STi should be coming in today....FINALLY! I am moving right along for the parts for the turbo...I know I am as slow as a snail on this project (no pun intended

).

the painted pillars look awesome! I need to do that bad(scratches and what not) and i want to do my headliner in black

Chris05STi · 02-22-2008, 10:36 AM

Thanks man! Headliner in black looks so much cleaner. When you first drive her with all the black theme, its like your in a different car. I love it. Suede is just a finishing cherry.

haha...funny guy!

Snails are pretty quick...takes a bit of time to get them moving...but once they move...it's over!

Chris05STi · 02-22-2008, 11:10 AM

Thats if they are installed with all supporting mods!
