I got an alignment yesterday (my 3-year "lifetime" alignment is almost up)
I had my windshield replaced this morning, only 100 bucks with insurance.

Lip is to be paint matched along with a type-r rear lip to match.

Thats pretty nice work there. I like the radio position swap with the cup holder add on. Got any more info on where those parts came from and hard is it to do that swap?

Nice seats too, i hope to be able to get those seats sometime maybee this summer if money permits.

The HOP console can be found in a bunch of places. But, it's almost always backordered.
Make sure you get a LHD one!! There are slight differences like mounting hole positions and the side is further out on the passeger's side.
I got mine from JHPUSA.com.

The Cup Holder/Coin tray is from a Ford Taurus believe it or not. You need to cut some stuff off of the back of it with a dremel.

Putting everything in is pretty easy. But if you want an aftermarket CD player where mine is you have to be good with a dremel.

I think the black emblem on the hood looks awesome on the white car - nice! i know I picked out the smallest thing done, but I like it.

Thanks man! I painted it with 3-4 light coats of flat black to make it a gunmetal-ish color. You can still kind of see the chrome shimmer through the flat black.
