I actually prefer the Redline Recaros with the blue insert. Always have.

Not to mention the price I paid and the minty condition they were in made it a no brainer.

Not gonna hold out for a seat with the only difference being SS embroidered in the seat, and a different cloth insert.

I wanted a seat with a condition matching my factory seats or better. Which I found.

All the other seats I looked at had tears and cracks in the leather, rips in the cloth, and they still wanted $700 + S&H.

So trying to decide on a muffler for my car. Both are borla, one has a baffled design and its 153$ the other has a "core" and I'd 278$... I'm leaning toward the cheaper one but I really want to know wtf is the straight through core

Today I saw that guy who kept revving at me and not racing like a bitch. Base model sedan with a highrise and Discount Tire poverty line wheels. It's been a while. I revved at him, hoping he wouldn't turn and would want to finally lose to me. He hesitated but didn't follow me. Damn.

I'm more than happy with them. They put the base SS/SC leather seats to shame. Not to mention I have them heated as well

I knew I'd get at least one person to question my decision on picking Redline Recaros over SS Recaros. Thing is, they are the same seat, just a different look. Some prefer the grey seats, I prefer the blue.

I went with the AVH-2700BS
Metra Kit + $30 Metra harness.

Taking a dremmel to the trim just to the left of the stereo, and make a bracket for the USB with a cover to keep dirt out.

Who needs a backup camera? Lol

Car looks good! Too bad there's a snow storm destroying my area or I would do another wash and wax.

These photos makes me miss how my car used to look a bit.

Always liked the polished wheels with Laser Blue.
