Wow nice numbers and nice build so far! What else you done to the car? I see in your avatar pic you have some gold (or bronze?) wheels? Powdercoated stockers or what?

Next was wheels and suspension. I went with Forgestar F14's 19x10 +25 Gold w/ Falken 265/30/19 Tires and BC Basic Coilovers








Next was some Engine Aesthetics and I went with pretty much everything Rexpeed offers for the engine bay


Next on the Menu was the Mode Racing Adjustable Short Shifter and because I wanted to go wingless I decided to get a Do Luck Trunk

Like the navi.. it's a shame Eclipse dropped out of the US market.

Also, I kinda like the bronze wheels against the red paint a little better than the white ones you had in your SEMA thread. Both look really nice, though
