Kona Blue from CA

Humm... How my car sits as 2010 comes to a close... It's been 6 months and about 11,000miles since I've purchased the car at 16.7miles...

Please excuse the crappy pics... =[ Try to enjoy!

I find it hard to believe that I went from:



To this... in 6 months... =| And then I look at my finances.























UPDATE:

Some more pics... I swear these look better in full resolution... -_-'

Enjoy?

CalPERS is one of the best spots in Sacramento that I've found for photoshoots...

As for the wheels, I just used Duplicolor wheel paint... Holding up pretty well in the rain and 200 miles so far.

Hmm... I'll keep that in mind when I burn these pads out shortly... =P

Though, There's too much color-match on my car... A/C vents, headlights, faux gas cap... hmm.

Whoa... that is MEAN looking!
Extremely tasteful... and awesome. Nice job.

The dark stock wheels are the icing on the cake. Did you paint them or is that powder coat??? Regardless, they look amazing.

I read through the thread I dont think it was mentioned... what suspension are you running? Drop is exactly what i'm looking for. What springs/other things did you do?

Looks great!
