    Hello :) I bought this car in March. Its a 2009 GTS and I love it. I just started doing some major modding on it because I just got promoted at my job so I am making mucho mula :D So much more is on the way and I am soooo excited! I want an evo but for now this will do me. It keeps me busy. What have I done so far?

    -Engine
    K&N Ram Air Intake
    Painted engine cover

    -Exterior
    Plasti-diped bottom lip, chrome, & spoiler
    Red Calipers
    Decals

    -Interior
    nothing yet :D

    Here is as close as i can get to the car before I started modding it.

    Don't mind the black front lip, i took it off and started peeling off the paint that started coming off :/
    It eventually fell off because I did not 3M the lip back on :/ because I was trying to save money up to have someone paint it.

    I will post picture of all the modds i done in the next few posts :)

    thats what i have right now :) What i want later on is HID low beam and fog lights but first a body kit or at least a new lip. They're tons of things I want, but money is a problem. I want some more decals thats for sure..since they are cheap :D

    I will pay you to paint anything on my car ie engine cover, radiator cover, spark plug cover and interior trim lol. You did a very nice job.

    well, i enjoy doing those kinds of things :) Ship them to me and I would do them for FREE haha

    and that car next to mine is an RX-8, smart man you are 1slowlance,

    also thanks everyone, I'm debating on what to do next. I want lowering springs but winter is just around the corner and I have a feeling it would be a bad idea :(

    Holla. Going lower isn't necessarily a bad thing in the winter. Just because it snows and what not, it all depends on how low you plan to go.

    I need to get the courage to do mine. I've never painted anything in my life and I have no idea where to get good paint for it. Autozone and ORielly suck lol

    WELL for mine I used Plastic Spray Paint from Menards. The plastic doesn't get too hot so the paint will not get ruined. If your painting anything that gets really hot then they have paint for that too. If your not looking for spray paint I wouldn't know. i think I am going to paint my car soon so I will have to figure that out soon :)

    I like the color now. Any high heat paint should be good for painting around your engine.
