Chris how are you? Hope all is well. Well, I can see that things ARE going really well for you, specially the way you are coming along with the car.

Hopefully I will see the pics soon, or maybe in person. Talk to you soon.

Hey Seb whats up? How the hell have you been? How is everything going? Yah the car is coming along nicely...still isn't half of where I want it to be....but in due time, in due time. Eventually through this year and spring of next, I am shooting to get my turbo ready to be tuned during the summer

. I will save up here and there and order the parts. We should meet up sometime, let me know when your free.

You know, the other day when we were talking about mirrors....funny how you didnt bring up those Paperchasin Charge Speed aero knock off's ..... SOB!

They are gonna be perfect.....NOT!

EDIT: I decided they are RICE, I'm passing.....

Chris05STi · 09-26-2007, 01:42 AM

AHHA, I would have...but, you were intrested in the GT style mirros, and I figured that the APR's were at a better price, I never thought you would like these!!!! They really look clean ont he STi....check out Lenny's journal, he has them too.

I'm sticking w/the stock mirrors, with my theme I decided that's what looks best. There is that fine line that I don't want to cross.
With your setup I really do think they will fit in nicely, for the $$ those mirrors really are a good choice, I was just bustin your balls.

Chris05STi · 09-26-2007, 06:01 PM

Cool....its going to be really nice to see your car in the magazine after all its been through!

Chris05STi · 10-01-2007, 04:35 PM

Update:

Just got the NRG Chargespeed Replica CF Mirrors. I installed them and they look really slick, better than the bulky stockers. I am liking the look. There still needs to be some more things added to complete what I am aiming for. Here are some crappy pics, notice the car is clean....yah thats just washed/clay bar'ed/washed/compounded/swirl remover. Still need to polish and wax it

!

its reneeee · 10-01-2007, 04:37 PM

those mirrors look good, whens the bumpers/grill going on?

Chris05STi · 10-01-2007, 04:40 PM

Painter does other things than paint....so he says by Thursday of this week he should have it painted or begin to paint it by Thursday. Friday/Saturday for the install. He has it all primed up and ready for paint. I trust his work and know he will do a great job, thats why he doesn't want any other jobs in the way when he takes his time with my stuff

.

Chris05STi · 10-04-2007, 07:06 PM

Update:

Car is at the painter's shop. I went over there today to check out the work, he already sanded down the primer to a really nice and smooth surface and painted it with 3 coats of OBP. He still needed to clear coated, which he did after I left. The Ings+1 Front Bumper, Side Skirts, and the C-West front grill get installed tomorrow morning after the painting/prep is finished. He is really taking his time to get everything right. Pics will follow along with the new NRG CF Chargespeed Replica mirrors!!!
