Picture and update bump:

Soo...this weekend we got the black bezel headlights and turn signals installed. A very subtle touch that made the outside look significantly better. We also installed the front and rear strut tower bars and the intake. The intake that got sent came with the wrong filter and a few of the wrong parts...the filter that they sent is this big, ricey Weapon R "Dragon filter" but it works for the time being. Also, we installed some Prothane shifter bushings and were astonished at what we found. The bushings on the shifter cables in the car were in tact, but the ones we installed were much more rigid and there was still lots of slop in the shifter. We got under the hood to look at the other end of the cables and one of the bushings was missing! I'm clueless as to how the car shifted at all, the other bushing under the hood was ripped and barely hanging on. After installing the Prothanes, the shifting feels 150% better and is much smoother.
Here are some before pics of the shifter cables...notice the one on the left isn't even there!

New headlights and smoked signals...




More to come...real soon!
