How do you like the DWS Conti's? They are an all season right? I looked at them before i bought 555's ....If I drove it all year round I would have bought them for sure . How's the grip in the warmer weather?

 

Too good. I wish I could spin the tires more. I think DRs and more boost in first may be in my future....

 

Painted the unfinished rear calipers and bracket with black caliper paint. Installed new ceramic pads and I think the setup look pretty good with the new rotors. Just finished painting the fronts as well, installed new ceramic pads, installed new front rotors, and ordered new Brembo decals. Really took my time, blue taped everything, prepped them well, and laid down five coats. They came out nice. Just waiting on the new decals. Pics coming. Most important aspect to painting the calipers properly was the prep work. It's all in the prep. The fronts came out even better than the rears. Had to wetsand the Brembo logo off so it would not show through the new paint.

 

Sexy as @#^%@^%@ . love those TC's!!!

 

Love it man. I love our color. Your brakes look awesome. Also your car is super clean.

 

We need aftermarket head lights! Would love if they made the lens lightly smoked, instead of clear.

 

Looks identical to my car, but I have the high rise wing.

Same year, same color, same tires! And similar mods as my K&N intake is on it's way haha!

 

Sweet, I thought about getting the big wing so I could see if I liked it. Any pics? I would like to have both if they use the same mounting points. Post a pic if you can!

 

They're kind of obnoxious, so I'd stick with the lowrise. Mine is also starting to come apart, which I still haven't gotten around to fixing.

Sorry for the crappy pics. I only have a PAS camera and I don't know crap about lighting.





Here's a pic of where the top blade is coming away from the side support:

 

Remove GM badges from side of car.

 

No.


btw: I have noticed some spots were the SRTC is doing a little fading. I store my car in my garage and I wax it bi-weekly, but I have to park it in the sun while I'm at work. I'm gonna keep an eye on these spots and I'll let you guys know how things progress, but it looks like they're all on the ground effects. All the paint that is on the metal seems fine.

 

GM paint and plastic parts don't seem to get along well.

 

Ordered some smoked black headlights. I'll update pics when they are installed.

 

get some retrofitted projectors put in those and they will be the perfect set of headlights

 

UPDATE: Very happy with the new head lights. Not only is the inside of the head light black, the lens is smoked as well! That is what I was looking for, a non-clear, smoked lens. DEPO is the brand name.

UPDATE: Smoked tail lights are in! Best combo of headlight and tail light IMO.

 

Smoked tail lights are now in!

Need smoked third brake light and side markers.

 

Yes, yes we do.

 

Ehhh I guess the color is alright Those tails look great!

 

Very nice car, and great color

Can I ask what kind of taillights those are?? They look great.

ZZP is coming out with a direct bolt on Borg Warner EFR series turbo, they are hoping to have it available by late fall. It is a stainless steel housing, ceramic ball bearing unit that spools like stock but will make 400+WHP without an issue. Maintains all the stock turbo connections, so its a direct bolt in, no modifications required.

 

Love that color.

 

Subscribers.... Wheels are next! I have not ever been a debadger, but there seems to be an abundance of emblems on the rear trunk lid. What emblems should I remove?

 

definitely the bowtie

 

Yep .... thats the 1st thing i did when i got my car home. The only thing on my trunk is the turbocharged emblem ...... I might put the SS emblem back on someday.
